Single florescent nanodiamond in a three dimensional ABEL trap
Three dimensional single particle trapping and manipulation is an outstanding challenge in various fields ranging from basic physics to life sciences. By monitoring the response of a trapped particle to a designed environment one can extract its characteristics. In addition, quantum dynamics of a spatially scanned well-known particle can provide environmental information. Precise tracking and p...
متن کاملAn all-glass microfluidic cell for the ABEL trap: fabrication and modeling
The Anti-Brownian Electrophoretic trap (ABEL trap) allows a user to trap and manipulate individual fluorescent molecules in solution. The heart of the ABEL trap is a microfluidic cell. In previous incarnations of the ABEL trap, the microfluidic cell was formed from a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) stamp and a glass coverslip. Here we present an improved microfluidic cell, made entirely out of glas...
متن کاملObservation of nitrogen vacancy photoluminescence from an optically levitated nanodiamond.
We present what we believe to be the first evidence of nitrogen vacancy (NV) photoluminescence (PL) from a nanodiamond suspended in a free-space optical dipole trap at atmospheric pressure. The PL rates are shown to decrease with increasing trap laser power, but are inconsistent with a thermal quenching process. For a continuous-wave trap, the neutral charge state (NV(0)) appears to be suppress...
متن کاملControlling Brownian motion of single protein molecules and single fluorophores in aqueous buffer.
We present an Anti-Brownian Electrokinetic trap (ABEL trap) capable of trapping individual fluorescently labeled protein molecules in aqueous buffer. The ABEL trap operates by tracking the Brownian motion of a single fluorescent particle in solution, and applying a time-dependent electric field designed to induce an electrokinetic drift that cancels the Brownian motion. The trapping strength of...
متن کاملNanodiamond molecular imaging with enhanced contrast and expanded field of view.
Nanodiamond imaging is a new molecular imaging modality that takes advantage of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in nanodiamonds to image a distribution of nanodiamonds with high sensitivity and high spatial resolution. Since nanodiamonds are nontoxic and are easily conjugated to biomolecules, nanodiamond imaging can potentially elicit physiological information from within a living organism. The p...
