Observation of Light-Driven Levitation Near Epsilon-Near-Zero Surfaces
Maria Grazia Donato, Michael Hinczewski, Theodore Letsou +6
Optical manipulation of micro- and nanoparticles near surfaces is fundamental for applications in sensing and microfluidics, yet controlling particle-surface interactions remains c…
Mode-dependent Emission Thresholds and Frequencies in Metal Nanoparticles within Gain-enhanced Media
Karen Caicedo, Nicole Recalde, Milena Mora +5
We present a mode-resolved analysis of emission thresholds in metal nanoparticles embedded within an infinite gain medium, using Mie scattering theory as a rigorous framework. Focu…
Gain-Assisted Optomechanical Position Locking of Metal/Dielectric Nanoshells in Optical Potentials
Paolo Polimeno, Francesco Patti, Melissa Infusino +6
We investigate gain-assisted optical forces on dye-enriched silver nanoshell in the quasi-static limit by means of a theoretical/numerical approach. We demonstrate the onset of non…
Faster calculations of optical trapping using neural networks trained by T-matrix data: an application to micro and nanoplastics
Shadi Rezaei, David Bronte Ciriza, Abdollah Hassanzadeh +5
We employ neural networks to improve and speed up optical force calculations for dielectric particles. The network is first trained on a limited set of data obtained through accura…
Optical Calibration of Holographic Acoustic Tweezers
Sonia Marrara, David Bronte Ciriza, Alessandro Magazzu +8
Recently, acoustic tweezers based on an array of ultrasonic transducers have been reported taking inspiration from holographic optical tweezers. In the latter technique, the calibr…
Deep Learning for Optical Tweezers
Antonio Ciarlo, David Bronte Ciriza, Martin Selin +5
Optical tweezers exploit light--matter interactions to trap particles ranging from single atoms to micrometer-sized eukaryotic cells. For this reason, optical tweezers are a ubiqui…
