Direct measurement of the nonconservative force field generated by optical tweezers [PDF]
, 2009 The force field of optical tweezers is commonly assumed to be conservative, neglecting the complex action of the scattering force. Using a novel method that extracts local forces from trajectories of an optically trapped particle, we measure the three ...

Chapter 6 Optical Force Microscopy
, 1997 Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the optical force microscopy. One goal of cell biology research is to observe individual cell components in their native environment. Nondamaging, high-resolution techniques for imaging molecular structures in aqueous buffer continue to be developed and improved.

Strong optical force induced by morphology dependent resonances [PDF]
Opt. Lett. 30, 1956 (2005), 2005 We consider the resonant optical force acting on a pair of transparent microspheres by the excitation of the Morphology Dependent Resonance (MDR). The bonding and anti-bonding modes of the MDR correspond to strong attractions and repulsions respectively.

On optical forces in spherical whispering gallery mode resonators [PDF]
, 2011 In this paper we discuss the force exerted by the field of an optical cavity on a polarizable dipole. We show that the modification of the cavity modes due to interaction with the dipole significantly alters the properties of the force.

Multi force optical tweezers to generate gradients of forces
Optics Express, 2004 We present a multi trap optical tweezes system that enables to generate two-dimensional dynamical configurations of focal spot where the trapping force of each element of the pattern can be individually changed. Force gradients in the pN range can be generated on a micrometer scale.
