High-resolution, high-contrast mid-infrared imaging of fresh biological samples with ultraviolet-localized photoacoustic microscopy

TL;DR: This work proposes a method that employs photoacoustic detection highly localized with a pulsed ultraviolet laser on the basis of the Grüneisen relaxation effect that allows water-background suppressed mid-infrared (MIR) imaging of lipids and proteins at ultraviolet resolution, at least an order of magnitude finer than the MIR diffraction limits.

The photoacoustic determination of fluorescence yields of dye solutions

TL;DR: In this paper, a new method for the measurement of the primary fluorescence quantum yield of dye solutions is presented, relying of the S n → S 1 transition probability as an internal standard for comparison with the S 1 radiationless transition probability, both probabilities being measured by photoacoustic spectroscopy.

Simple, new technique for measurement of fluorescence quantum yields: Application to benzene vapor

TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique was presented for measuring fluorescence quantum yields without recourse to comparison with “standards”, and the first experiments involved a study of benzene in the vapor phase.
