Abstract

The invention generally relates to systems and methods for controlling molecules. In certain aspects, the invention provides a system for controlling molecules, the system comprising: a first light source; a second light source; an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) coupled to the second light source; and control circuitry. In certain embodiments, the control circuitry may be configured to: receive a signal from the first light source that is interrogating a location in a sample that may contain a target molecule; compare the signal received from the first light source to a preset signal; and in the event that the signal received from the first light source meets or exceeds the preset signal, then the target molecule is present at the location in the sample and the control circuitry causes the AOM to activate the second light source to transmit light onto the location in the sample that contains the target molecule.
