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

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

Optical Calibration of Holographic Acoustic Tweezers
Recently, acoustic tweezers based on an array of ultrasonic transducers have been reported taking inspiration from holographic optical tweezers. In the latter technique, the calibration of the optical trap is an essential procedure to obtain the trap stiffnesses.

Acousto-holographic optical tweezers
Acousto-optic deflectors (AODs) allow the creation of multiple optical traps by time-sharing, that is, by rapidly cycling the laser focus between designated spatial locations. The traps thus formed are not permanent. In this Letter, we successfully demonstrate the creation of multiple and permanent traps by means of AODs driven by specially encoded ...

Marker-free cell discrimination by holographic optical tweezers [PDF]
We introduce a method for marker-free cell discrimination based on optical tweezers. Cancerous, non-cancerous, and drug-treated cells could be distinguished by measuring the trapping forces using holographic optical tweezers.
