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

Optical Tweezers in Human Cancers
Zhongliu Fangzhi YanjiuOptical tweezers are a means to manipulate objects with light. Optical tweezers can obtain a nanometer space, piconewton force, and a millisecond resolution; thus, they are excellently suited for studying biological processes from the single-cell to the ...

Micro-Dumbbells—A Versatile Tool for Optical Tweezers
Micromachines, 2018 Manipulation of micro- and nano-sized objects with optical tweezers is a well-established, albeit still evolving technique. While many objects can be trapped directly with focused laser beam(s), for some applications indirect manipulation with tweezers ...

Optical tweezers: wideband microrheology [PDF]
Journal of Optics, 2011 Microrheology is a branch of rheology having the same principles as conventional bulk rheology, but working on micron length scales and micro-litre volumes. Optical tweezers have been successfully used with Newtonian fluids for rheological purposes such as determining fluid viscosity.
