Ray Optics Model for Optical Trapping of Biconcave Red Blood Cells

open access: yesMicromachines, 2022
Red blood cells (RBCs) or erythrocytes are essential for oxygenating the peripherical tissue in the human body. Impairment of their physical properties may lead to severe diseases. Optical tweezers have in experiments been shown to be a powerful tool for

Ultra-short bandwidth optical tweezer generation using GaAs ring resonator system

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
In this article, the modified add/drop multiplexer system as ring resonator is proposed for optical tweezers generation. The entire effect is analyzed by the nonlinear existence of the proposed structure.

Genetic Material Manipulation and Modification by Optical Trapping and Nanosurgery-A Perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Light can be employed as a tool to alter and manipulate matter in many ways. An example has been the implementation of optical trapping, the so called optical tweezers, in which light can hold and move small objects with 3D control.
