13. The setups reported by other labs employed either cut off filters so that all light was collected at wavelengths greater than 630 nm, or bandpass filters. Moreover, in most of the measurements the monochromator slits were not removed although fully open. If required removal of the slits or removal of the monochromator gains another 1 to 2 orders of magnitude of sensitivity, which provides an extra margin for further reduction in illumination intensity at expense of spectral resolution.

16. Although oxidizing the dye shifts the HOMO-LUMO transition to shorter wavelengths (Refs. 14 and 15) it furthermore allows the occurrence transitions from close lying π orbitals below the HOMO to the HOMO in the near IR.
