Abstract
Fluorescence intensity correlation measurements reveal that z-oriented nanostructures from single chains of a cyano-substituted polyphenylene vinylene (CN-PPV) polymer act as single-quantum emitters. Photon antibunching is observed for the first time on individual polymer nanostructures with a modulation depth exceeding 90%, providing definitive proof that radiative recombination of molecular excitons occurs at a single localized site within the folded polymer chain.Entities:
