چکیده
ABSTRACT We proposed hybrid nanorobot that can be manipulated by optical tweezers and has hybrid structure integrating functional nanomaterials. We employed femotosecond laser exposure for fabrication of the nanorobot with 3D nanometric structure. We succeeded in fabricating nanorobot with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) that has a high photothermal efficiency. Furthermore, we evaluated optical manipulation characteristics of the nanorobot and demonstrated single cell puncture with the nanorobot. We performed single cell puncture by irradiating infrared (IR) laser to CNT and generating heat on that point.

متن کاملA logic-gated nanorobot for targeted transport of molecular payloads.
We describe an autonomous DNA nanorobot capable of transporting molecular payloads to cells, sensing cell surface inputs for conditional, triggered activation, and reconfiguring its structure for payload delivery. The device can be loaded with a variety of materials in a highly organized fashion and is controlled by an aptamer-encoded logic gate, enabling it to respond to a wide array of cues. ...
متن کاملElectrochemical detection of single microbeads manipulated by optical tweezers in the vicinity of ultramicroelectrodes.
Latex micrometric beads are manipulated by optical tweezers in the vicinity of an ultramicroelectrode (UME). They are optically trapped in solution and approached the electrode surface. After the electrochemical measurement, they are optically removed from the surface. The residence time of the particle on the electrode is thus controlled by the optical tweezers. The detection is based on diffu...
متن کاملDesign and Control of a Sensor-guided Nanorobot
Miniaturization is a key step in the design of integrated circuits. Intelligent systems working on the microand nanometer scale, i. e. "nanorobots", would be of great value in this miniaturization phase. They would help optimizing the design and production process by acquiring local sample information and they even might work as nanotools to fix tiny imperfections. To create such a nanorobot we...
