Magnetic Tweezers with Magnetic Thin Films

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Applied Physics, 2011
Magnetic tweezers consisting of a 75×0.65×0.3 µm3 silicon oxide cantilever and a 72×13×0.3 µm3 silicon oxide plate deposited with magnetic thin films are fabricated and placed under various magnetic fields to observe their flexure. The principle of the magnetic tweezers is magnetic torque on condition that the high shape magnetic anisotropy is ...

Recent Advances in Magnetic Tweezers

Annual Review of Biophysics, 2012
Since their first demonstration of manipulation and mechanical coiling of a single DNA molecule, magnetic tweezers have become a popular and widely used single-molecule manipulation technique. Magnetic tweezers have yielded a wealth of information on the elastic properties of (coiled) DNA and have provided critical insights into the dynamic activity ...

New approaches in the design of magnetic tweezers–current magnetic tweezers

Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 2016
Abstract The main advantages of the magnetic tweezers are the low price and simplicity of use. However the range of their application is reduced due to shortcomings like, for example, the remanent induction of the core and interaction between ferromagnetic cores.

Soft magnetic tweezers: A proof of principle

Review of Scientific Instruments, 2011
We present here the principle of soft magnetic tweezers which improve the traditional magnetic tweezers allowing the simultaneous application and measurement of an arbitrary torque to a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule. They take advantage of a nonlinear coupling regime that appears when a fast rotating magnetic field is applied to a ...

Controlled patterning of magnetic hydrogel microfibers under magnetic tweezers

open access: yes2013 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2013
3D tailor-made biodegradable scaffold integrated with biological cells or molecules is of great importance for tissue engineering. This paper addresses an improved method for exploring magnetic tweezers in patterning and aligning magnetic hydrogel fiber to fabricate large-scale engineered cell-hydrogel constructs.

Magnetic nanowire-enhanced optomagnetic tweezers

Applied Physics Letters, 2008
We report an optomagnetic tweezers technique that utilizes the highly localized magnetic field gradients induced near the tip of a magnetic nanowire to provide strong trapping forces on magnetic nanoparticles with high spatial resolution. Integral to our approach is a method to trap, translate, and rotate a single magnetic nanowire in three dimensions.
