A computational tool to characterize particle tracking measurements in optical tweezers
Michael A. Taylor, Warwick P. Bowen
Here we present a computational tool for optical tweezers which calculates the particle tracking signal measured with a quadrant detector and the shot-noise limit to position resol…
Enhanced optical trapping via structured scattering
Michael A Taylor, Muhammad Waleed, Alexander B Stilgoe +2
Interferometry can completely redirect light, providing the potential for strong and controllable optical forces. However, small particles do not naturally act like interferometric…
Quantum Enhanced Microrheology of a Living Cell
Michael A. Taylor, Jiri Janousek, Vincent Daria +4
We demonstrate the first biological measurement with precision surpassing the quantum noise limit. Lipid particles within a living yeast cell are tracked with sub-shot noise sensit…
