Scientists use laser microbubbles to manipulate the nanoparticles

According to Engadget UK, nanoparticles are extremely small - less than 100 nanometers in diameter - but have a huge impact on medicine, solar technology, batteries, computers and other industries. Nanoparticles are more active, more powerful and more flexible than other molecules, which, despite being less than 1 billionth of a meter in size, are extremely difficult to manipulate but this obstacle has recently been overcome.

Yuebing Zheng, Deji Akinwande and Andrew Dunn, engineers at the University of Texas at Creperie, have created a technology that allows researchers to be smart Pick up a nanoparticle and move it to a specific location. They named the new technology bubble-pen lithography (BPL).

The scientists aimed their laser at the bottom of a gold island until it created a microbubble from the evaporated water. The bubble absorbs a specific nanoparticle and researchers are free to move it across the surface. Once the laser is turned off, the microbubbles disappear, but the nanoparticles remain.

This system may allow researchers to precisely control individual cells, bacteria, viruses and biological materials for more rigorous and detailed studies. It can also work under a pre-programmed system, similar to a 3D printer.

"The ability to control a single nanoparticle and attach it to a substrate without damaging it may open the possibility of creating new materials and new equipment," Zheng said at a press conference. "The ability to arrange particles will help to promote new types of materials, the so-called metamaterials that have the features and functionality that currently do not exist in natural materials."
