## Abstract The functional analysis of plant cells at the cellular and subcellular levels requires novel technologies for the directed manipulation of individual cells. In this report, we demonstrate the use of an infrared (1,064 nm) picosecond laser for the perforation of tobacco cell protoplasts.
Intramolecular proton transfer in the excited electronic state of 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-benzothiaxole (HBT) is investigated on the picosecond time scale. A Stokes shift of approximately 10000 cm-' between the absorption and the fluorescence maximum and a fluorescence quantum yield of 1.5% are found fo
