Abstract: Intrinsic properties of a polyethylene glycol nanofiber are utilized for the first time to dynamically modify the spontaneous emission rate of encapsulated boradiazaindacene dye molecules with fluorescence lifetime imaging. Nanofibers, fabricated by the electrospinning technique,… read more here.
