Scanning holographic optical tweezers

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2017
The aim of this Letter is to introduce a new optical tweezers approach, called scanning holographic optical tweezers (SHOT), which drastically increases the working area (WA) of the holographic-optical tweezers (HOT) approach, while maintaining tightly focused laser traps. A 12-fold increase in the WA is demonstrated.

Above and beyond: holographic tracking of axial displacements in holographic optical tweezers

open access: yesOptics Express, 2019
How far a particle moves along the optical axis in a holographic optical trap is not simply dictated by the programmed motion of the trap, but rather depends on an interplay of the trap's changing shape and the particle's material properties. For the particular case of colloidal spheres in optical tweezers, holographic video microscopy reveals that ...

Holographic Optical Tweezers at the Tip of a Needle [PDF]

open access: yes2018 IEEE Photonics Society Summer Topical Meeting Series (SUM), 2018
Fibre-based optical tweezers typically rely on engineered fibre terminations yielding limited flexibility in number and positioning of trap sites. Here, we demonstrate holographic optical tweezers delivered by a lensless, high-NA multimode fibre with full positioning control of multiple tweezers independently and in all directions.

Hands-on with optical tweezers: a multitouch interface for holographic optical trapping

open access: yesOptics Express, 2009
We report the implementation of a multitouch console for control of a holographic optical tweezers system. This innovative interface enables the independent but simultaneous interactive control of numerous optical traps by multiple users, overcoming the limitations of traditional interfaces and placing the full power of holographic optical tweezing ...

Combined holographic-mechanical optical tweezers: Construction, optimization, and calibration

open access: yesReview of Scientific Instruments, 2009
A spatial light modulator (SLM) and a pair of galvanometer-mounted mirrors (GMM) were combined into an optical tweezers setup. This provides great flexibility as the SLM creates an array of traps, which can be moved smoothly and quickly with the GMM.

Optofluidic Tweezers: Efficient and Versatile Micro/Nano-Manipulation Tools

open access: yesMicromachines, 2023
Optical tweezers (OTs) can transfer light momentum to particles, achieving the precise manipulation of particles through optical forces. Due to the properties of non-contact and precise control, OTs have provided a gateway for exploring the mysteries ...

Design of Optical Tweezers Manipulation Control System Based on Novel Self-Organizing Fuzzy Cerebellar Model Neural Network

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Holographic optical tweezers have unique non-physical contact and can manipulate and control single or multiple cells in a non-invasive way. In this paper, the dynamics model of the cells captured by the optical trap is analyzed, and a control system ...

Optimized hologram generation method for real-time spontaneous manipulation

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2023
Aided by computer generated holography, holographic optical tweezers enable manipulation of particles and objects with exceptional versatility. The responsiveness of the manipulation is often hindered by the speed of holograph generation, especially when
