Computer generated holography with intensity-graded patterns
Computer Generated Holography achieves patterned illumination at the sample plane through phase modulation of the laser beam at the objective back aperture. This is obtained by using liquid crystal-based spatial light modulators (LC-SLMs), which modulate

Longitudinal Mie resonances in silicon nanodisks, excited by an azimuthally–radially polarized beam, generate strong optical chirality gradients with minimal achiral background. Magnetic quadrupole modes enable selective enantiomer trapping, achieving predicted selectivities over 100 for |κ|≥0.03 $\vert \kappa \vert \ge 0.03$ and robust performance ...

Enantioselective Separation and Negative Transport of Chiral Particles via Optical Needle Fields
This work proposes an all‐optical strategy that leverages a tailored optical needle field for the enantioselective separation and 3D manipulation of chiral particles. By introducing phase modulation, we engineer a dual‐needle configuration capable of spatially separating and negatively transporting both enantiomers within a single system, offering a ...

Shaping Matter with Acoustic Waves: From Particles to Functional Structures
Acoustic‐directed assembly is reviewed as a materials‐oriented strategy for organizing particles, polymers, metals, and biological systems into functional structures. The review distinguishes reversible manipulation from permanent structure formation through medium fixation, particle fixation, and in situ material generation, highlighting routes toward

All‐Optical Reconfigurable Physical Unclonable Function for Sustainable Security
An all‐optical reconfigurable physical unclonable function (PUF) is demonstrated using plasmonic coupling–induced sintering of optically trapped gold nanoparticles, where Brownian motion serves as a robust entropy source. The resulting optical PUF exhibits high encoding density, strong resistance to modeling attacks, and practical authentication ...

Experimental demonstration of holographic three-dimensional light shaping using a Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm [PDF]
We use a three-dimensional Gerchberg–Saxton algorithm (Shabtay (2003) Opt. Commun. 226 33) to calculate the Fourier-space representation of physically realizable light beams with arbitrarily shaped three-dimensional intensity distributions.
