Electromagnetic forces and torques enable many key technologies, including optical
tweezers or dielectrophoresis. Interestingly, both techniques rely on the same physical …

Biofilms occur in a broad range of environments under heterogeneous physicochemical
conditions, such as in bioremediation plants, on surfaces of biomedical implants, and in the …

Many DNA-based technologies involve the immobilization of DNA and therefore require a
fundamental understanding of the DNA structure–function relationship at interfaces. We …

Nanopore techniques are now widely used to sequence DNA, RNA and even oligopeptide
molecules at the base pair level by measuring the ionic current. In order to build a more …

Optical tweezers enable the manipulation of micro-and nanodielectric particles through
entrapment using a tightly focused laser. Generally, optical trap** of submicron size …

Single molecule force spectroscopy using optical tweezers (OT) has enabled nanoresolved
measurements of dynamic biological processes but not of synthetic molecular mechanisms …

In this Letter, we propose a novel metasurface conveyor belt with periodic orientated arrays
of gold plasmonic elliptical elements (GPEEs), which can be continuously lit in a relay way …

Optical traps are devices used to micromanipulation microscopic objects using a focused
laser beam in an optical microscope field of view. Trap** such objects is possible only …

The quantification of the interactions between biomolecules and materials interfaces is
crucial for design and synthesis functional hybrid bionanomaterials for materials science …

As devices approach the single-nanoparticle scale, the rational assembly of nanomaterial
heterojunctions remains a persistent challenge. While optical traps can manipulate objects …
