Fig. 2: Successive microscope frames showing DNA@AuNS trapping, releasing, and translocation.

a A frame-by-frame sequence of DNA@AuNS trapping and releasing, the dotted circle indicates the trapping region. b A frame-by-frame sequence of the translocation of a cluster of trapped DNA@AuNSs. The laser power is 0.33 mW, the AuNS and PEG concentration is 100 μM and 10% (wt%) respectively. Scaler bar = 4 μm. The full video can be accessed in Supplementary Video 1, 2
