The analysis of various modes of multichannel information recording and readout in conditions of a stimulated (accumulated and long-living) photon echo in the crystals doped with rare earth ions which are known as Van-Fleck paramagnets has been performed in order to utilize them in the operation of low-temperature optical echo-processors.
Luminescence imaging has been adapted to facilitate alignment and focusing of multiple non-collinear laser beams in pump–probe experiments. The technique has been validated in an experiment on four-wave mixing in a doped polymer placed into a high-pressure sapphire-anvil cell, itself inside an optical cryostat.
Two-pulse, stimulated and accumulated photon echoes are investigated for the first time in a highly doped crystal Tm:YAG containing 10 at.% Tm3+. The decay curves of the twopulse and stimulated photon echoes generated at 793.15 nm on the transition 3H6(1)–3H4(1) of the impurity ions are measured in the absence of an applied magnetic field and param...

A way of analyzing the spatial distribution of a solution on a substrate with a developed nanostructured surface (a metallized metasurface) is proposed. The technique is based on epi-luminescence microscopy and can be used to calculate the gain of the SERS signal on a surface with a complex highly-developed structure, where standard ways of estimat...
Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots, QD) manifest specific temperature dependent luminescence. Here we analyse temperature dependences of CdSe QD luminescence spectrum shift for different composites: polymers, glasses, crystals. The analysis was performed in the terms of electron-phonon coupling, that allows to find and compare the p...
We have compared and analyzed the parameters of the Franck–Condon (FC) and Herzberg–Teller (HT) interactions, which form the fine-structure spectra of stilbene, 1,4-distyrylbenzene, and tetrafluorodistyrylbenzene—compounds that are similar in their chemical structures but differ in the length of π-conjugation and in the presence of substituents in...

Simple procedure to prepare samples containing semiconductor quantum dots was developed. Test photon echo measurements in the ensemble of quantum dots spread on a glass substrate were performed to study optical dephasing processes.
The photon echo (PE) spectroscopy and single-molecule spectroscopy (SMS) may be combined to give a very powerful tool for comprehensive study of low-temperature dynamics in dye-doped disordered solids (polymers, glasses). At the same time, this type of studies are likely to reveal discrepancies when comparing characteristic times of optical dephasi...

The phenomenon of the zero-phonon spectral lines (ZPL), which corresponds to pure electronic transitions of impurity dye chromophore centers in solids, has already been the basis of high resolution spectroscopy for a few decades.

HBSM’2018 is organized by the Institute of Spectroscopy of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Troitsk, Moscow) in collaboration with the Moscow State Pedagogical University. The conference venue will be in the heart of the ancient Russian city of Suzdal, known as one of the best places that illustratively and vividly tell about the centuries of eventful and dramatic history of this land and its peoples.
Laser selective spectroscopy has a special meaning for Russia. In 1952 the staff of the Department of Theoretical Physics of the Moscow State Pedagogical Institute under the direction of Prof. Eduard Shpol’sky was the first to observe the emergence of quasi-linear spectra of complex organic compounds in specially selected solvents at low cryogenic temperatures known as Shpolskii matrices. In 1972, a former student of Shpol’sky, Prof. Roman Personov and his colleagues at the Institute of Spectroscopy of the USSR Academy of Sciences have successfully performed a selective laser excitation of luminescence of organic molecules. Then, in 1974, researchers from Personov’s group and their colleagues from the Institute of Physics in Tartu, Estonia (USSR) conducted fundamental experiments on the persistent spectral hole burning. This work has formed the basis of laser site-selective spectroscopy of molecules, which has reached its culmination in single-molecule spectroscopy.
HBSM was started in 1987 in Tallin, Estonia (USSR) as “All-Union Symposium on Modern Methods of Laser Spectroscopy of Molecules in Low-Temperature Media”. The next meetings were “Persistent Spectral Hole Burning: Science and Applications” in Monterey (California, USA, 1991) and “Spectral Hole Burning and Luminescence Line Narrowing: Science and Applications” in Ascona (Switzerland, 1992). The following meetings were organized as “International conferences on Hole-Burning and Related Spectroscopies (HBRS): Science and Applications” in Tokyo (Japan, 1994), Brainerd (Minnesota, USA, 1996) and Hourtin (France, 1999). In 2001, the Conference received its current name “Hole Burning, Single Molecule, and Related Spectroscopies (HBSM): Science and Applications”. The HBSM meetings were held in Taipei (Taiwan, 2001), Bozeman (Montana, USA, 2003), Aussois (France, 2006), Palm Cove (Australia, 2009), Tübingen (Germany, 2012) and Tartu (Estonia, 2015). This conference series has been exceptionally successful in bringing together participants from the leading research teams around the world to discuss the latest developments in the fundamental science and the applications of site-selective and single-molecule spectroscopy and related topics. We are looking forward to seeing you in Suzdal!
