Fig. 2 a from Eleni Dalaka et al. 2024 “Deformable microlaser force sensing”: DEFORM reliably measures sub-nanonewton forces. a Schematic illustration of the deformation of single microlaser droplets by an atomic force microscope (top) and visualization of a typical push-and-release experiment (bottom). For indentation, a 17 µm glass sphere was glued to the AFM tip of a soft AFM cantilever with nominal stiffness of k = 0.01 N/m (NANOSENSORS™ uniqprobe qp-SCONT). *

Mechanical forces are key regulators of cellular behavior and function, affecting many fundamental biological processes such as cell migration, embryogenesis, immunological responses, and pathological states.… Read More »Deformable microlaser force sensing
