Abstract
A 1,340-fold increase in single-molecule fluorescence has been observed from a lithographically fabricated gold bowtie nanoantenna — approximately an order of magnitude greater than that achieved in previous reports on such structures. The improvement results from an estimated ninefold increase in quantum efficiency, caused by enhanced absorption and an increased radiative emission rate.
