Optically induced sieve effect for nanoparticles near a nanofiber taper
Mark Sadgrove, Takaaki Yoshino, Masakazu Sugawara +2
We demonstrate size selective optical trapping and transport for nanoparticles near an optical nanofiber taper. Using a two-wavelength, counter-propagating mode configuration, we s…

Optical transport of sub-micron lipid vesicles along an optical nanofibre
Takaaki Yoshino, Daichi Yamaura, Maki Komiya +6
Enhanced manipulation and analysis of bio-particles using light confined in nano-scale dielectric structures has proceeded apace in the last several years. Small mode volumes, alon…
