The effect of Immersion medium in optical tweezers

Abstract

In this paper, we report on theoretical investigation of the effect of refractive index of immersion oil on the position of optimal depth and optical trap quality in optical tweezers. Using simple numerical calculation presented here, one can study the optical trapping in different samples, after multi interfaces and find the best choice of immersion oil for a particular case.
