Award List:
SBIR Phase I: Single Molecule NanoTweezers
Award Year / Program / Phase:
2011 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency:
NSF
Principal Investigator:
David Erickson
Award Amount:
$149,370.00
Abstract:
This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project aims to develop a commercial optically resonant nanotweezer chip. The nanotweezer technology, originally developed at Cornell University, uses photonic resonance to localize optical forces so they can be used to directly manipulate biological… More
