摘要
Fluorescence of synthetic melanin in dimethyl sulfoxide has been excited by two-photon absorption at 800 nm, using 120 fs pulses with photon flux densities greater than or equal to 10(27) cm(-2) s(-1). The shortest main component of the three-exponential decay of fluorescence is 200 +/- 2 ps. The overall spectral shape is red-shifted with respect to the 400 nm excited fluorescence. Two-photon excited melanin fluorescence also has been measured from excised samples of healthy human skin tissue. Because of the selectivity of melanin excitation via resonant two-photon absorption, it is hypothesized that fluorescence excited in this way may yield information on malignant transformation.
