Four methods of applying mode-locked lasers to time-resolved fluorescence measurements in the subnanosecond region are compared. When time resolution below 100 ps is not required, the most precise and sensitive method is single-photon counting, and the application of this method to studies of time-resolved fluorescence of tryptophan in simple peptides is described. The dependence of lifetimes on pH and temperature are interpreted in terms of quenching by intramolecular proton and electron transfers.

Abstract For time resolved hot carrier emission from the backside, an alternate approach is demonstrated termed single point PICA. The single point approach records time resolved emission from an individual transistor using time-correlated-single-photon counting and an avalanche photo-diode. The avalanche photo-diode has a much higher quantum efficiency than micro-channel plate photo-multiplier tube based imaging cameras typically used in earlier approaches. The basic system is described and demonstrated from the backside on a ring oscillator circuit.
