Roadmap for Optical Tweezers

Giovanni Volpe, Onofrio M. Maragò, Halina Rubinzstein-Dunlop +80

Optical tweezers are tools made of light that enable contactless pushing, trapping, and manipulation of objects ranging from atoms to space light sails. Since the pioneering work b…

Tutorial on the analytical calculation of optical forces on spherical particles in optical tweezers

Antonio Alvaro Ranha Neves, Carlos Lenz Cesar

Arthur Ashkin was awarded the 2018 Nobel prize in physics for the invention of optical tweezers. Since the first publication in 1986 Optical Tweezers have been used as a tool to me…
