Periodically poled near-stoichiometric lithium tantalate for optical parametric oscillation
A 35-mm-long periodically poled device was fabricated from a near-stoichiometric lithium tantalate, and optical parametric oscillation was demonstrated with a low oscillation threshold (106 mW). The e...

Atmospheric pressure microplasmas for modifying sealed microfluidic devices
A dc microdischarge technique for the chemical modification of microchannel walls is reported. In this method, an atmospheric pressure plasma is ignited directly in the channels of assembled microflui...

We demonstrate, that under nitrogen atmosphere, 20% of single DiIC18(3) (1,1![[prime]](http://scitation.aip.org/stockgif2/prime-script.gif)
-dioctadecyl-3,3,3,3-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate) molecules in poly(methylmethacrylate) show an extremely low photobleaching quantum yield of (4.66±0.07)×10–8 together with a reasonably short triplet lifetime. We exploit these properties to demonstrate that the system can be used to produce a triggered single-photon source based exclusively on organic materials. ©2004 American Institute of Physics.
