Abstract

The ability of nanophotonic hole chips to guide light energy into subwavelength-diameter cylindrical nanoapertures has been exploited for single-molecule fluorescence studies of biomolecules at micromolar concentrations. Here, we present a nanophotonic/microfluidic hybrid chip for single-molecule fluorescence imaging. Our design allowed single-molecule FRET studies that revealed weak DNA-protein and protein-protein interactions found with T4 replisomal proteins.
