Fluorescence: Principles, Applications, and Future Prospects

Here’s a little deeper dive into the history, and uses of fluorescence in science. Fluorescence is a phenomenon that occurs when a substance absorbs light at a particular wavelength and re-emits light at a longer wavelength. This process involves the absorption of photons by a fluorophore, followed by the emission of photons through relaxation mechanisms. […]

The Physics of Fluorescence

The schematic representation of the fluorescence effect below demonstrates the mechanism when blue light strikes the protein GFP, which absorbs the blue light’s energy. The absorption of the light’s energy causes the electrons of the protein’s constituent atoms to make a quantum jump from one valence electron shell to a higher shell. This change of […]
