Ramsey Imaging of Optical Traps [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Applied, 2021
Mapping the potential landscape with high spatial resolution is crucial for quantum technologies based on ultracold atoms. Yet, imaging optical dipole traps is challenging because purely optical methods, commonly used to profile laser beams in free space, are not applicable in vacuum.

Microrheology With an Anisotropic Optical Trap [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
Microrheology with optical tweezers (MOT) measurements are usually performed using optical traps that are close to isotropic across the plane being imaged, but little is known about what happens when this is not the case. In this work, we investigate the effect of anisotropic optical traps on microrheology measurements.

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.

Quantum efficiency improvement of optical radiation trap-detectors

open access: yesSemiconductor Physics, Quantum Electronics & Optoelectronics, 2019
The ways to increase the quantum efficiency of trap detectors of optical radiation have been discussed. Presented here has been a brief review of trap detectors, in which high quantum efficiency is ensured by their design.

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.

Simulation of superresolution holography for optical tweezers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Optical tweezers manipulate microscopic particles using foci of light beams. Their performance is therefore limited by diffraction. Using computer simulations of a model system, we investigate the application of superresolution holography for two ...

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.

Optical trapping reveals propulsion forces, power generation and motility efficiency of the unicellular parasites Trypanosoma brucei brucei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Unicellular parasites have developed sophisticated swimming mechanisms to survive in a wide range of environments. Cell motility of African trypanosomes, parasites responsible for fatal illness in humans and animals, is crucial both in the insect vector ...
