Optical trapping core formation and general trapping mechanism in single-beam optical tweezers
New Journal of Physics, 2022 The working mechanism of single-beam optical tweezers is revisited using a recently established method. The optical force is split into conservative and nonconservative components, and these components are explicitly calculated for particles in the ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The pre‐internalization phase of endocytosis remains poorly characterized at single‐cell levels. Single‐cell pre‐internalization mechanics are investigated using advanced robotic techniques. Cancer cells exhibit biphasic adhesion – rapid initial binding followed by reinforcement – while fibroblasts show gradual engagement.

Optical Tweezers to Study Viruses
, 2013 A virus is a complex molecular machine that propagates by channeling its genetic information from cell to cell. Unlike macroscopic engines, it operates in a nanoscopic world under continuous thermal agitation. Viruses have developed efficient passive and active strategies to pack and release nucleic acids.
