Researchers proposed a nanosized, light-driven motor that is powerful enough to carry a certain load and possible act as a drug delivery system, according to the study published in the Journal of Chemical Physics.
“The unprecedented characteristics of dipole photomotors based on semiconductor nanoclusters offer the prospect of more than just addressing a certain scarcity of the translational photomotors family,” lead researcher Leonid Trakhtenberg of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology said in prepared remarks. “These devices could actually be applied wherever rapid nanoparticle transport is required. In chemistry and physics, they could help develop new analytical and synthetic instruments, while in biology and medicine they could be used to deliver drugs to diseased tissues, improve gene therapy strategies, and so on.”
