Tailoring optical pulling forces with composite microspheres
R. Ali, F. A. Pinheiro, R. S. Dutra +1
Optical pulling forces or tractor beams can pull particles against light propagation by redirecting the incident photons forward. This is typically achieved using Bessel beams with…

Optimizing optical tweezing with directional scattering in composite microspheres
R. Ali, F. A. Pinheiro, F. S. S. Rosa +2
Trapping of microspheres with a single focused laser beam is usually limited to materials with relative refractive indexes slightly larger than one. We show that directional light…
