Extended three dimensional optical tweezers with a Single Gaussian Beam in a stratified medium

Sramana Das, Suvajit Dey, Nirmalya Ghosh +2

We demonstrate a simple and effective approach for realizing extended volumetric optical trapping using a single linearly polarized Gaussian beam propagating through a stratified m…

Tunable Optical Torque by Asymmetry-Induced Spin-Hall Effect in Tightly Focused Spinless Gaussian Beams

Sauvik Roy, Ram Nandan Kumar, Biswajit Das +3

A linearly polarized Gaussian beam, carrying zero net spin angular momentum, is conventionally not expected to exert optical torque or induce rotational motion in birefringent micr…

Photophoretic Trapping: Fundamentals, Advances and Future Directions

Anita Pahi, Kirty Ranjan Sahoo, Souvik Sil +1

Photophoretic forces, several orders of magnitude stronger than radiation pressure, enable particle trapping at remarkably low optical intensities and have opened pathways to appli…

Simultaneous active and diffusive behaviour of asymmetric microclusters in a photophoretic trap

Anita Pahi, Kirty Ranjan Sahoo, Biswajit Das +2

Active and diffusive motion in Brownian particles are regularly observed in fluidic environments, albeit at different time scales. Here, we experimentally study the dynamics of hig…

A comprehensive study of the Spin-Hall effect of tightly focused linearly polarized light through a stratified medium in optical tweezers

Sramana Das, Sauvik Roy, Subhasish Dutta Gupta +2

The optical Spin-Hall effect originates from the interaction between the spin angular momentum (SAM) and extrinsic orbital angular momentum (OAM) of light, leading to mutual interr…

A study of the coupled dynamics of asymmetric absorbing clusters in a photophoretic trap

Anita Pahi, Shuvojit paul, Ayan Banerjee

We report a study on the dynamics of absorbing asymmetric carbon clusters trapped by a loosely focused Gaussian beam using photophoretic force. At high laser powers, all the trappe…
