Popis: We proposed an automatic sorting method based on a virtual optical chip, which was formed by a complex-amplitude beam shaping system. The automatic sorting of different micro-particles was realized by the optical forces of the intensity and phase gradients of the reconstructed optical beam. The method was verified with theoretical analysis and experimental results. Compared with the traditional optical sorting methods, the proposed one does not need high-precision mechanical and/or microfluidic devices. The optical chip is flexible in structure and efficient in optical sorting and can be used in the fields of medical detection and material sensing.
