Metasurfaces, composed of artificial meta-atoms of subwavelength size, can support strong
light–matter interaction based on multipolar resonances and plasmonics, hence offering the …

Ferritin is a protein that stores and releases iron to prevent diseases associated with iron
dysregulation in plants, animals, and bacteria. The conversion between iron-loaded holo …

Nanopore sensors provide a unique platform to detect individual nucleic acids, proteins, and
other biomolecules without the need for fluorescent labeling or chemical modifications. Solid …

Single molecule analysis of proteins in an aqueous environment without modification (eg,
labels or tethers) elucidates their biophysics and interactions relevant to drug discovery. By …

PR65 is the HEAT repeat scaffold subunit of the heterotrimeric protein phosphatase 2A
(PP2A) and an archetypal tandem repeat protein. Its conformational mechanics plays a …

Ferritin, a spherical protein shell assembled from 24 subunits, functions as an efficient iron
storage and release system through its channels. Understanding how various chemicals …

Nanohole optical tweezers have been used by several groups to trap and analyze proteins.
In this work, we demonstrate that it is possible to create high-performance double nanohole …

Temperature changes in plasmonic traps can affect biomolecules and quantum emitters;
therefore, several works have sought out the capability of measuring the local temperature …

Microscopic variations in material stiffness play a vital role in cellular scale biomechanics,
but are difficult to measure in a natural 3D environment. Brillouin microscopy is a promising …

A dielectric (nano) particle can influence the local electromagnetic field and thereby alter its
interaction with that field through the process of self-induced back-action. While this …
