Novel chip-based platform could simplify measurements of single molecules

Thursday, August 14, 2014 - 08:31 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers at UC Santa Cruz have developed a new approach for studying single molecules and nanoparticles by combining electrical and optical measurements on an integrated chip-based platform. In a paper published July 9 in Nano Letters, the researchers reported using the device to distinguish viruses from similarly-sized nanoparticles with 100 percent fidelity.
