Engineers discover new 'all-optical' nanoscale sensors of force.
Nanosensors access previously unreachable environments and could disrupt technologies from robotics to cellular biophysics and medicine to space travel.
They are luminescent nanocrystals that can change intensity and/or color when pushed or pulled.
Researchers from Columbia University and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab developed nanoparticles that are sensitive to force.
They found that the avalancheing behavior of these nanoparticles greatly impacted by gentle forces.
The team now aims to apply these force sensors to an important system where they can achieve significant impact, like a developing embryo.
