Electro-Optical Ion Trap for Experiments with Atom-Ion Quantum Hybrid Systems

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
In the development of atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) physics, atom-ion hybrid systems are characterized by the presence of a new tool in the experimental AMO toolbox: atom-ion interactions.

Determining Trap Compliances, Microsphere Size Variations, and Response Linearities in Single DNA Molecule Elasticity Measurements with Optical Tweezers

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
We previously introduced the use of DNA molecules for calibration of biophysical force and displacement measurements with optical tweezers. Force and length scale factors can be determined from measurements of DNA stretching.

The switching of optoelectronics to full optical computing operations based on nonlinear metamaterials

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
The recent progress in optical computing outlines the fact that electronic computing has almost failed to cope with the international optical computation and communication traffic demand.

Anomalous Lehmann Rotation of Achiral Nematic Liquid Crystal Droplets Trapped under Linearly Polarized Optical Tweezers

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Continuous rotation of a cholesteric droplet under the heat gradient was observed by Lehmann in 1900. This phenomenon, the so-called Lehmann effect, consists of unidirectional rotation around the heat flux axis.

Orbital Rotation of Trapped Particle in a Transversely Misaligned Dual-Fiber Optical Trap

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2016
We propose and demonstrate a novel optical orbital rotation technique for trapped particle in a transversely misaligned dual-fiber optical trap. The orbital rotation frequency can be controlled by varying the power of two counterpropagating beams.

Positioning Accuracy in Holographic Optical Traps

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
Spatial light modulators (SLMs) have been widely used to achieve dynamic control of optical traps. Often, holographic optical tweezers have been presumed to provide nanometer or sub-nanometer positioning accuracy.

Novel Ion Trap Design for Strong Ion-Cavity Coupling

open access: yesAtoms, 2016
We present a novel ion trap design which facilitates the integration of an optical fiber cavity into the trap structure. The optical fibers are confined inside hollow electrodes in such a way that tight shielding and free movement of the fibers are ...

Lightsheet optical tweezer (LOT) for optical manipulation of microscopic particles and live cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Optical trapping and patterning cells or microscopic particles is fascinating. We developed a light sheet-based optical tweezer to trap dielectric particles and live HeLa cells.

Forced Atom Interferometers in Optical Harmonic Potentials

open access: yesAtoms
We present a study of Doppler-sensitive light-pulse atom interferometers operating within optical dipole potentials, where atomic trajectories are manipulated using momentum transfer from light pulses and optical forces from the trap.

Diffusiophoresis driven colloidal manipulation and shortcuts to adiabaticity

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
While compressing a colloidal state by optical means alone has been previously achieved through a specific time-dependence of the trap stiffness, realizing quickly the reverse transformation stumbles upon the necessity of a transiently expulsive trap. To
