Reducing the mechanical mismatch between the stiffness of a neural implant and the softness of the neural tissue is still an open challenge in neuroprosthetics. The emergence of conductive hydrogels in the last few years has considerably widened the spectr ...

Single potassium niobate nano/microsized particles as local mechano-optical Brownian probes

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Flavio Maurizio Mor, Sylvia Jeney

Perovskite alkaline niobates, due to their strong nonlinear optical properties, including birefringence and the capability to produce second-harmonic generation (SHG) signals, attract a lot of attention as potential candidates for applications as local nan ...

Calibration of optical tweezers with non-spherical probes via high-resolution detection of Brownian motion

László Forró, Richard Gaal, Flavio Maurizio Mor, Sylvia Jeney

Optical tweezers are commonly used and powerful tools to perform force measurements on the piconewton scale and to detect nanometer-scaled displacements. However, the precision of these instruments relies to a great extent on the accuracy of the calibratio ...

Exploiting the color of Brownian motion for high-frequency microrheology of Newtonian fluids

László Forró, Flavio Maurizio Mor, Sylvia Jeney

Einstein's stochastic description of the random movement of small objects in a fluid, i.e. Brownian motion, reveals to be quite different, when observed on short timescales. The limitations of Einstein's theory with respect to particle inertia and hydrodyn ...

Observation of the Brownian motion of a small probe interacting with its environment provides one of the main strategies for characterizing soft matter. Essentially, two counteracting forces govern the motion of the Brownian particle. First, the particle i ...

Monitoring ligand–receptor interactions by photonic force microscopy

László Forró, Flavio Maurizio Mor, Sylvia Jeney

We introduce a method for the acquisition of single molecule force measurements of ligand-receptor interactions using the photonic force microscope (PFM). Biotin-functionalized beads, manipulated with an optical trap, and a streptavidin-functionalized cove ...
