Interrogating the Ballistic Regime in Liquids with Rotational Optical Tweezers

Autor: Watson, Mark L., Stilgoe, Alexander B., Favre-Bulle, Itia A., Rubinsztein-Dunlop, Halina

Accessing the ballistic regime of single particles in liquids remains an experimental challenge that shrouds our understanding of the particle-liquid interactions on exceedingly short time scales. We demonstrate the ballistic measurements of rotation

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 by Arthur Ashkin in the 1970s, optical tweezers have evolved into sophi

Controlled transfer of transverse optical angular momentum to optically trapped birefringent particles

Autor: Stilgoe, Alexander B., Nieminen, Timo A., Rubinsztein-Dunlop, Halina

We report on the observation and measurement of the transfer of transverse angular momentum to birefringent particles several wavelengths in size. A trapped birefringent particle is much larger than the nano-particles systems for which transverse ang

All light has structure, but only recently it has become possible to construct highly controllable and precise potentials so that most laboratories can harness light for their specific applications. In this chapter, we review the emerging techniques

Machine learning reveals complex behaviours in optically trapped particles

Autor: Lenton, Isaac C. D., Volpe, Giovanni, Stilgoe, Alexander B., Nieminen, Timo A., Rubinsztein-Dunlop, Halina

Since their invention in the 1980s [1], optical tweezers have found a wide range of applications, from biophotonics and mechanobiology to microscopy and optomechanics [2, 3, 4, 5]. Simulations of the motion of microscopic particles held by optical tw
