Electrical engineers at Vanderbilt University have developed an on-demand, scalable technique to manipulate nanodiamonds. These researchers are the first to introduce an approach for trapping and moving a nanomaterial, known as a single colloidal nanodiamond with nitrogen-vacancy centers using a low-power laser beam.
