Portable fiber-based double nanohole optical tweezer for trapping small proteins

We demonstrate the trapping and analysis of individual proteins using a portable optical fiber tweezer setup with a double-nanohole in a gold film coating the fiber’s end and aligned with the fiber core. The instrument was used to trap and analyze cytochrome c, carbonic anhydrase, bovine serum album...
