A diffraction approach to assess the elastic properties of a nylon string
Francisco M. Muñoz-Pérez, Adrián Garmendía-Martínez, Juan C. Castro-Palacio +2
The Youngś modulus of a nylon string has been determined experimentally by combining elasticity theory and wave optics. A diffraction experiment has been setup to determine the cha…
Visualizing acoustic levitation using COMSOL Multiphysics
Francisco M. Muñoz-Pérez, Juan C. Castro-Palacio, Marcos H. Giménez +1
We present a new virtual laboratory developed with COMSOL Multiphysics for the simulation of an acoustic levitator. Our computer application simulates the acoustic pressure field a…
Multiplexed vortex beam-based optical tweezers
Francisco M. Muñoz-Pérez, Vicente Ferrando, Walter D. Furlan +3
The design and implementation of a multiplexed spiral phase mask in an experimental optical tweezer setup are presented. This diffractive optical element allows the generation of m…
