A Linearly Deformable Pneumatic Scalable Microgripper for Universal Mid‐Air Micromanipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a fully 3D printed soft microgripper capable of active adhesion control through a pneumatic system. Its modular design can reach a high adhesion switching ratio of 373 and free release of micro‐objects at 100 μm$\umu \rm {m}$ dimension.

Ray transfer matrix for a spiral phase plate

open access: yes, 2013
We present a ray transfer matrix for a spiral phase plate. Using this matrix, we determine the stability of an optical resonator made of two spiral phase plates, and trace stable ray orbits in the resonator.
