Convex lens-induced nanoscale templating.
We demonstrate a new platform, convex lens-induced nanoscale templating (CLINT), for dynamic manipulation and trapping of single DNA molecules. In the CLINT technique, the curved surface of a convex lens is used to deform a flexible coverslip above a substrate containing embedded nanotopography, creating a nanoscale gap that can be adjusted during an experiment to confine molecules within the e...
متن کاملPrecision platform for convex lens-induced confinement microscopy.
We present the conception, fabrication, and demonstration of a versatile, computer-controlled microscopy device which transforms a standard inverted fluorescence microscope into a precision single-molecule imaging station. The device uses the principle of convex lens-induced confinement [S. R. Leslie, A. P. Fields, and A. E. Cohen, Anal. Chem. 82, 6224 (2010)], which employs a tunable imaging c...
متن کاملConvex lens-induced confinement for imaging single molecules.
Fluorescence imaging is used to study the dynamics of a wide variety of single molecules in solution or attached to a surface. Two key challenges in this pursuit are (1) to image immobilized single molecules in the presence of a high level of fluorescent background and (2) to image freely diffusing single molecules for long times. Strategies that perform well by one measure often perform poorly...
متن کاملNanoscale self-templating for oxide epitaxy with large symmetry mismatch
Direct observations using scanning transmission electron microscopy unveil an intriguing interfacial bi-layer that enables epitaxial growth of a strain-free, monoclinic, bronze-phase VO2(B) thin film on a perovskite SrTiO3 (STO) substrate. We observe an ultrathin (2-3 unit cells) interlayer best described as highly strained VO2(B) nanodomains combined with an extra (Ti,V)O2 layer on the TiO2 te...
متن کاملDevelopment of a platform for single cell genomics using convex lens-induced confinement.
We demonstrate a lab-on-a-chip that combines micro/nano-fabricated features with a Convex Lens-Induced Confinement (CLIC) device for the in situ analysis of single cells. A complete cycle of single cell analysis was achieved that includes: cell trapping, cell isolation, lysis, protein digestion, genomic DNA extraction and on-chip genomic DNA linearization. The ability to dynamically alter the f...
