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…
Multi-trap optical tweezers based on Kinoform Silver Mean lenses
Francisco M. Muñoz-Pérez, Adrián Garmendía-Martínez, Vicente Ferrando +3
In this paper, we present the design and implementation of multi-trap optical tweezers based on new quadrifocal kinoform lenses. The phase distribution of these diffractive lenses…
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…
