Optical trapping is a well-established technique to manipulate and levitate microand nanoscale particles and droplets. However, optical traps for single aerosol studies are most often limited to trapping spherical non-absorbing droplets and a universal optical trap for the stable confinement of particles regardless of their absorption strength and morphology is not established. Instead, new opportunities arise from levitating droplets using electrodynamic traps.Here, using a combined Electrodynamic Linear Quadrupole trap and a Cavity Ring-Down Spectrometer, we demonstrate that it is possible to trap single droplets and simultaneously
