The concept of physical antibiotics using nanoparticles is proposed and a feasibility study is performed theoretically. The core operating principle is based on the temperature increase of nanoparticles adhering to an infected area (bacteria colony or biofilm) induced by applying an external magnetic field and electromagnetic waves. In the first phase, the magnetic field increases the temperature of the nanoparticles after their capture by the infection area. In the next phase, the nanoparticles form distributed dipole antennas that will absorb electromagnetic waves efficiently. The high-temperature nanoparticles will drill into the cell walls of the bacteria and consequently destroy the bacteria. There is a possibility that these physical antibiotics will solve the current problems related to conventional antibiotics.
