Abstract

We studied the photon statistics of the driven single molecule under intersystem crossing process which caused the fluorescence blinking via generating function approach. We give an analytical expression of the average emission photons <N>and the Mandel's Q parameter in long time limit. The results demonstrate that the Mandel's Q parameter has the same behavior as the average emission photons <N> with respect to the evolution time, both of them linearly increasing with the evolution time increase, when the intersystem crossing process occurred in the single molecule.

Photon Statistical Properties Emitted from Single Molecule Derived from Generating Function Method

Bai-Ping Han

In this paper, we summarize the photon emission statistical properties of single molecule system, using the recently developed generating function method. Through the introduce of one or double “auxiliary” variables, we can investigate the first moment and second moment of photon emission statistics driven by different external fields, such as the line shapes and Mandel's Q parameters, the photon emission probabilities, the probability distribution of time between successive emission, the waiting time and the waiting time distribution, the cross correlation, the joint probabilities, etc. Among, the first moment of photon statistics and the experimental results of optical amplification are in good agreement.

Statistical properties of single molecule photon emission under pump-probe fields

Han Bai

The statistical properties of fluorescence photon emission of single molecule modeled by two-level system (TLS) under pump-probe fields were investigated by employing the generating function method developed recently. We study the impact of pump-probe fields on some single molecule statistical properties, such as, the line shapes, Mandel Q parameters and probalities of photon emission. Our theoretical result about average emission photon numbers and experimental result are in good agreement.

Theory for Wavelength-Resolved Photon Emission Statistics in Single-Molecule Fluorescence Spectroscopy

Golan Bel, Frank L. H. Brown

We derive the moment generating function for photon emissions from a single molecule driven by laser excitation. The frequencies of the fluoresced photons are explicitly considered. Calculations are performed for the case of a two-level dye molecule, showing that measured photon statistics will display a strong and nonintuitive dependence on detector bandwidth. Moreover, it is demonstrated that the antibunching phenomenon, associated with negative values of Mandel's Q parameter, results from correlations between photons with well separated frequencies.

Reduction of single-photon emission from a single-emitter system by intersystem crossing

Yong He, Lin Dai

We investigate the reduction in the probability of single-photon emission from a single-emitter system caused by intersystem crossing. The physical model is that a single-emitter system with three levels is excited by a square pulse laser, and then a single photon is emitted at a controllable time. We find that the intersystem crossing always reduces the probability of single-photon emission. We obtain quantitative and analytical expressions for the probabilities of zero-, one-, and two-photon emission and Mandel's Q parameter as the function of the intersystem crossing rate under the conditions of finite field strength and finite interaction time with the laser pulse. We discuss the conditions for obtaining the maximal probability of single-photon emission in the presence of intersystem crossing. We find that one can obtain a high probability of single-photon emission from the single-emitter system using square pulse excitation in comparison with continuous wave excitation. Mandel's Q parameter exhibits a transition from a sub-Poissonian behavior to a super-Poissonian behavior due to the influence of intersystem crossing. The calculated Mandel's Q parameter and second-order correlation function of photon emission considering the coherent effect are in better agreement with the experimental data.
