Journal ArticleDOI

How vinculin regulates force transmission

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that vinculin is not required for transmission of adhesive and traction forces but is necessary for myosin contractility-dependent adhesion strength and traction force and for the coupling of cell area and tractionforce.
Journal ArticleDOI

A microfluidic device for reversible environmental changes around single cells using optical tweezers for cell selection and positioning

TL;DR: An experimental method enabling acquisition of data on the behaviour of single cells upon reversible environmental perturbations is demonstrated, where microfluidics is combined with optical tweezers and fluorescence microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Live cell lithography: using optical tweezers to create synthetic tissue.

TL;DR: A new method for creating synthetic tissue that has the potential to capture the three-dimensional (3D) complexity of a multi-cellular organism with submicron precision is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infiltration and Inversion of Holographically Defined Polymer Photonic Crystal Templates by Atomic Layer Deposition

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used atomic layer deposition (ALD) to create high-index TiO2 inverted replicas of holographically defined photonic crystals, followed by removal of the polymeric template by plasma etching.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonperturbative chemical modification of graphene for protein micropatterning.

TL;DR: It is shown that bifunctional molecule pyrenebutanoic acid-succinimidyl ester (PYR-NHS), composed of the hydrophobic pyrene and the reactive succinimide ester group, binds to graphene noncovalently but irreversibly.
