Upper bound to optical forces through the multipolar control of optical beams

Enrique Ayllón-García, Iker Gómez-Viloria, Quimey Pears Stefano +6

Optical tweezers enable the manipulation of microscopic objects using light, yet the fundamental limits to the optical forces that can be exerted on matter remain unknown. Here we…
