Optical trapping, manipulation, and 3D imaging of disclinations in liquid crystals and measurement of their line tension

Ivan I. Smalyukh, Bohdan I. Senyuk, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii +4

We demonstrate optical trapping and manipulation of defects and transparent microspheres in nematic liquid crystals (LCs). The three-dimensional director fields and positions of th…
