Time-Resolved Diffusing Wave Spectroscopy for selected photon paths beyond 300 transport mean free paths

This paper is devoted to the theoretical and experimental demonstration of the possibility to perform time-resolved diffusing wave spectroscopy: we successfully registered field fluctuations for selected photon path lengths that can overpass 300 transport mean free paths. Such a performance opens new possibilities for biomedical optics applications.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figure

First-principles modelling of molecular single-electron transistors

We present a first-principles method for calculating the charging energy of a molecular single-electron transistor operating in the Coulomb blockade regime. The properties of the molecule are modeled using density-functional theory, the environment is described by a continuum model, and the interaction between the molecule and the environment are included through the Poisson equation. The model is used to calculate the charge stability diagrams of a benzene and C$_{60}$ molecular single-electron transistor
