title: Three dye energy transfer cascade within DNA thin films.
abstract: An efficient cascade FRET was realized in solid state DNA-CTMA thin films using a three chromophore system without any covalent attachments. The extent of energy transfer from Cm102 to SRh was studied and found to improve eight-fold using the bridging dye Pm567.
