Single-molecule microscopy has been used to investigate the temperature dependence of terrylene absorption lines in n-alkane matrices. Measurements have been performed for terrylene/hexadecane and terrylene, decane in the temperature range 1.7 8 K. The investigation of many molecules in parallel all...
