Optically Driven Janus Micro Engine with Full Orbital Motion Control
David Bronte Ciriza, Agnese Callegari, Maria Grazia Donato +11
Microengines have shown promise for a variety of applications in nanotechnology, microfluidics and nanomedicine, including targeted drug delivery, microscale pumping, and environme…
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…
Speckle Optical Tweezers: Micromanipulation with Random Light Fields
Giorgio Volpe, Lisa Kurz, Agnese Callegari +2
Current optical manipulation techniques rely on carefully engineered setups and samples. Although similar conditions are routinely met in research laboratories, it is still a chall…
Computational toolbox for optical tweezers in geometrical optics
Agnese Callegari, Mite Mijalkov, A. Burak Gököz +1
Optical tweezers have found widespread application in many fields, from physics to biology. Here, we explain in detail how optical forces and torques can be described within the ge…
