Fluorescent burst integrated fluorescence lifetime

Spectroscopy of single molecules is based on fluorescence correlation, photoncounting histograms, or burst-integrated-lifetime techniques. Each case requires recording not only the times of the photons in the laser period, but also their absolute time. Modem time-resolved single molecule techniques therefore use almost exclusively the FIFO (time-tag) mode of TCSPC. The FIFO mode records all information about each individual photon, i.e. the time in the laser pulse sequence (micro time), the time from the start of the experiment (macro time), and the number of the detector that detected the photon (see Sect. 3.6, page 43).
