TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarize the recent advances in the field of optical tweezers using structured light beams with customized phase, amplitude, and polarization in 3D optical trapping.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review summarizes the related theory, experimental techniques, and applications for wavefront shaping with DMDs in both statically shaping various spatial modes and dynamically compensating for the wavefront distortion caused by the scattering medium.

TL;DR: A novel method to create perfect vortex beams with large topological charges using a digital micromirror device (DMD) through binary amplitude modulation and a narrow Gaussian approximation and the measurements show good consistency with the theoretical simulation.

TL;DR: These observations demonstrate that the DMD offers a simple and efficient method to generate Bessel beams with distinct nondiffracting and self-reconstruction behaviors, and will potentially expand the applications to the optical manipulation and high-resolution fluorescence imaging owing to the unique nondIFFracting property.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to directly transform a linearly polarized Gaussian beam into vector-vortex beams with various spatial patterns via a Digital Micro-mirror Device (DMD) binary holography for generating Laguerre Gaussian, Bessel Gaussian and helical Mathieu Gaussian modes, while a radial polarization converter (S-waveplate) is employed to effectively convert the optical vortices into cylindrically polarized vortex beams.
