Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled rotation of optically trapped microscopic particles.
Lynn Paterson,Michael P. MacDonald,Jochen Arlt,Wilson Sibbett,Peter E. Bryant,Kishan Dholakia +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate controlled rotation of optically trapped objects in a spiral interference pattern, which is generated by interfering an annular shaped laser beam with a reference beam.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of high-order Bessel beams by use of an axicon
Jochen Arlt,Kishan Dholakia +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate and analyse a method for efficiently generating a high-order Bessel beam of arbitrary order by illuminating an axicon with the appropriate Laguerre-Gaussian light beam.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical micromanipulation using a Bessel light beam
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate a technique for optical manipulation of micron-sized particles, including biological samples, using a zeroth-order Bessel light beam, which offers a non-diffracting focal line of light.
Journal ArticleDOI
Creation and Manipulation of Three-Dimensional Optically Trapped Structures
Michael P. MacDonald,Lynn Paterson,Karen Volke-Sepúlveda,Jochen Arlt,Wilson Sibbett,Kishan Dholakia +5 more
TL;DR: An interferometric pattern between two annular laser beams is used to construct three-dimensional trapped structures within an optical tweezers setup and could play an important role in the creation of extended 3D crystalline structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of a beam with a dark focus surrounded by regions of higher intensity: the optical bottle beam
Jochen Arlt,Miles J. Padgett +1 more
TL;DR: A computer-generated hologram is used to form an optical beam with a localized intensity null at its focus that will have applications in the optical trapping of macroscopic objects or atoms; hence the term optical bottle beam.
