- Additional information
- This is the first study that reported distant dependent changes in photoacoustic signals at 10 angstrom levels. DNA nanotechnology was used to precisely control and position optical dye molecules with sub nanometer precision. This study also experimentally demonstrated for the first time that photoacoustic imaging can be used to probe FRET mechanisms at tissue depths. The work also initiated an international research collaboration between the UK and Spain and resulted in two further high impact publications to date: DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202001739 and DOI: 10.1039/C8CC04007A.
