While this photophysical behavior is predicted for a four-photon absorbing dye, the herein proposed approach opens the way to use two-photon absorbing dyes, reaching the same performance. Hence, the spatial resolution limit, being a critical parameter for applications in fluorescence imaging or data storage with common two-photon absorbing dyes, is dramatically improved.}, publisher = {American Chemical Society}, keywords = {Dyes and pigments}, keywords = {Fluorescence}, keywords = {Fluorescence resonance energy transfer}, keywords = {Absorption spectroscopy}, keywords = {Lasers}, title = {Toward Two-Photon Absorbing Dyes with Unusually Potentiated Nonlinear Fluorescence Response}, doi = {10.1021/jacs.0c07377}, author = {Benítez Martín, Carlos and Li, Shiming and Domínguez Alfaro, Antonio and Pischel, Uwe}, }
