Abstract

Revolution in resolution: Abbe's resolution limit has been overcome in fluorescence microscopy by using light-driven processes to switch the emission of fluorophores on and off. Alternatively, chemical reactions can be used, for example the coordination of Cu2+ ions to a fluorescent probe for the stochastic switching between spectroscopic states.
