Surfactants Control Optical Trapping near a Glass Wall

Olivier Martin, Jeonghyeon Kim

Beyond their original capability to grab and hold tiny objects, optical tweezers have emerged as a powerful tool to investigate fundamental physics at microscopic scales. A precise characterization of the optical trap is one of the key requirements in such ...

Planar hydrodynamic traps and buried channels for bead and cell trapping and releasing

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Daniel Migliozzi, Clémentine Sophie Sarah Lipp, Jonathan Bastien Cottet

We present a novel concept for the controlled trapping and releasing of beads and cells in a PDMS microfluidic channel without obstacles present around the particle or in the channel. The trapping principle relies on a two-level microfluidic configuration: ...

Laser Cooling of a Nanomechanical Oscillator to Its Zero-Point Energy

Tobias Kippenberg, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni

Optomechanical systems in the well-resolved-sideband regime are ideal for studying a myriad of quantum phenomena with mechanical systems, including backaction-evading measurements, mechanical squeezing, and nonclassical states generation. For these experim ...

Radiative cooling of carbon cluster anions C-2n+1(-) (n=3-5)

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado

Radiative cooling of carbon cluster anions C(2n+1)(-)C2n+1- (n = 3-5) is investigated using the cryogenic electrostatic ion storage ring DESIREE. Two different strategies are applied to infer infrared emission on slow (milliseconds to seconds) and ultraslo ...

Quantum Measurement of Mechanical Motion close to the Standard Quantum Limit

Liu Qiu

In quantum mechanics, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle places a fundamental limit in the measurement precision for certain pairs of physical quantities, such as position and momentum, time and energy or amplitude and phase. Due to the Heisenberg uncert ...

Out-of-equilibrium phase diagram of long-range superconductors

Within the ultimate goal of classifying universality in quantum many-body dynamics, understanding the relation between out-of-equilibrium and equilibrium criticality is a crucial objective. Models with power-law interactions exhibit rich well-understood cr ...

Floquet dynamics in the quantum measurement of mechanical motion

Tobias Kippenberg, Nicolas Piro Mastracchio, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni, Marie Adrienne Ioannou

The radiation-pressure interaction between one or more laser fields and a mechanical oscillator gives rise to a wide range of phenomena: From sideband cooling and backaction-evading measurements to ponderomotive and mechanical squeezing to entanglement and ...

Contactless optical trapping and manipulation of nanoparticles utilizing SIBA mechanism and EDL force

Mahdi Sahafi

On-chip optical tweezers based on evanescent fields overcome the diffraction limit of the free-space optical tweezers and can be a promising technique for developing lab-on-a-chip devices. While such trapping allows for low-cost and precise manipulation, i ...

Resonant optical trapping in hollow photonic crystal cavities and its potential use for bacterial characterisation

Rita Therisod

During the last decade, the development of optofluidic chips has become a large field of research. The integration of nano and microstructures with microfluidics layers allowed for the miniaturisation of a number of tools traditionally used in laboratories ...

In Situ Observation of Coulomb Fission of Individual Plasmonic Nanoparticles

Marcel Drabbels, Ulrich Lorenz, Pavel Olshin, Jonathan Mark Voss

Reshaping plasmonic nanoparticles with laser pulses has been extensively researched as a tool for tuning their properties. However, in the absence of direct observations of the processes involved, important mechanistic details have remained elusive. Here, ...

Atomistic-continuum coupling of random alloys

William Curtin, Till Junge, Shankha Nag

Random alloys are multicomponent systems where the atomic type on each lattice site is independent of the atom types on any other lattice site. The fluctuations in local atomic configurations inherent to the random alloy prevents the accurate application o ...
