摘要
The transfer of energy from one molecule to another is as important to photosynthesis as to lasers. Microcavities and photonic band gap materials have been successfully used to control spontaneous emission of light. Now, experiments with a polymer microcavity hint that the energy-transfer process may be controlled in a similar way.
