Optical Trapping of an Ion [PDF]

Nature Photonics, 2010
For several decades, ions have been trapped by radio frequency (RF) and neutral particles by optical fields. We implement the experimental proof-of-principle for trapping an ion in an optical dipole trap. While loading, initialization and final detection

Optical-trapping micromanipulation using 780-nm diode lasers [PDF]

Physical Review A, 1993
We have designed and implemented an optical-trapping configuration that uses near-infrared laser diodes. The highly divergent output beam of the diode laser was collimated by using only one aspheric compact disc lens.

Magneto-optical Trapping of Cadmium [PDF]

Physical Review A, 2007
We report the laser-cooling and confinement of Cd atoms in a magneto-optical trap, and characterize the loading process from the background Cd vapor.

Modelling of optical traps for aerosols [PDF]

Journal of the Optical Society of America B, 2010
Experimental observations suggest that there are differences between the behavior of particles optically trapped in air and trapped in a liquid phase.

Enhanced optical trapping [PDF]

Optical Manipulation and Structured Materials Conference 2020, 2020
Optical tweezers have contributed substantially to the advancement of micro-manipulation. However, they do have restrictions, mainly the limited range of materials that yield to optical trapping. Here we propose a method of employing optically trapped objects to manipulate the surrounding fluid and thus particles freely diffusing within it.

Positioning Accuracy in Holographic Optical Traps

Micromachines, 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.

Artifact-free holographic light shaping through moving acousto-optic holograms

Scientific Reports, 2021
Holographic light modulation is the most efficient method to shape laser light into well-defined patterns and is therefore the means of choice for many intensity demanding applications.
