The development of fluorescence microscopy of single-molecule DNA in the last decade has fostered a bold jump in the understanding of polymer physics. With the recent advance of nanotechnology, devices with well-defined dimensions that are smaller than typical DNA molecules can be readily manufactured. The combination of these techniques has provided an unprecedented opportunity for researchers to examine confined polymer behavior, a topic far less understood than its counterpart. Here, we review the progress reported in recent studies that investigate confined polymer dynamics by means of single-molecule DNA experiments.
Keywords:confined polymer;single-molecule DNA;tube-like confinement;silt-like confinement;surface confinement;blob theory
