A nonfluorescent optical probe for ultrasensitive label-free detection of electrophysiological signals (2 of 5)

Caption

Scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of cardiomyocyte cells cultured on an array of wireless electro-plasmonic nanoantenna array is shown. 2.25 million wireless electro-plasmonic nanoelectrodes are integrated on a glass substrate. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the Oct. 18th, 2019, issue of Science Advances, published by AAAS. The paper, by A. Habib at University of California Santa Cruz, in Santa Cruz, CA, and colleagues was titled, "Electro-plasmonic nanoantenna: A nonfluorescent optical probe for ultrasensitive label-free detection of electrophysiological signals."
