World's Smallest Antenna

The fluorescent nanoantenna designed by Alexis Vallée-Bélisle and his team, like a two-way radio that can both receive and transmit radio waves, receives light in one color and transmits light back in another color depending on the protein movement it detects, and we can detect that too.
One of the main innovations of these nanoantennas is that the receiving part of the antenna (bright green) is also used to sense the molecular surface of the studied protein through molecular interaction. Permission: Caitlin Monne
