Great work from Katjana getting this time resolved spectroscopy paper out.

We highly load fluorophores onto optical fibres for medical sensing, but when you pack in a lot of fluorophore the behaviour gets complex. How to investigate?
We use our favourite technique, time resolved spectroscopy!
Direct observation of the energy transfer / quenching effects in both the spectral and time axis – showing the power of the time resolved methods.
Directly relevant to our previous paper https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-44077-7 in Scientific Reports and our other recent works https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aca.2020.07.063 , https://doi.org/10.1364/OL.381018 ,
But I hope relevant to the much wider community developing fluorescence based fibre probes.
