Background:

  • Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is a powerful technique for studying molecular dynamics.
  • Traditional FCS methods may have limitations in resolving diffusion across different length scales simultaneously.
  • Anomalous diffusion, deviating from simple Brownian motion, requires advanced analytical tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) experiment.
  • To combine two-photon excitation with a standing-wave interference pattern for enhanced diffusion analysis.
  • To develop a method capable of measuring diffusion on multiple time and length scales.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a fluorescence correlation spectroscopy setup.
