On-fringe optical trapping of dielectric microparticles in air

Optical trapping in air of dielectric micro-spheres is reported using a dual fiber optical tweezers. The spheres are trapped on the interference fringes created by the two counter-propagating optical trapping beams. The use of polarization maintaining fibers allowed us to obtain very high and reproducible trapping efficiencies.

Abstract

Optical trapping in air of dielectric micro-spheres is reported using a dual fiber optical tweezers. The spheres are trapped on the interference fringes created by the two counter-propagating optical trapping beams. The use of polarization maintaining fibers allowed us to obtain very high and reproducible trapping efficiencies.
