Single-molecule force spectroscopy with photoluminescent semiconducting polymers: Harnessing entropy (1802.03182v1)
Published 9 Feb 2018 in cond-mat.soft, cond-mat.mes-hall, cond-mat.mtrl-sci, and physics.chem-ph
Abstract: We discuss implications of a recent experimental breakthrough which uses a fluorescence-doped flexible semiconducting polymer to construct a single-molecule sensor which can detect ultra-weak forces in the molecular environment, with a grey scale down to 300 femtonewtons.
