“…This procedure paves the way for obtaining other complex structures having a strong potential for a diversity of applications, such as mode communication [30,31], advanced optical trapping [11,32,33], among others. Indeed, more complex beams, such as LP21 are now being studied for the rotation of particles and cells trough the angular momentum transference.…”

“…One particular application where the ability to control the fiber output beam profile is being explored, is in the development of optical fiber tweezers (OFT). OFT consist of a technological turning point since the trapping system can be implemented in a complete miniaturized form due to the small scale of the fibers [10,11] compared to normal setups [12].…”

Abstract:In this work the use of guided wave photo-polymerization for the fabrication of novel polymeric micro tips for optical trapping is demonstrated. It is shown that the selective excitation of linear polarized modes, during the fabrication process, has a direct impact on the shape of the resulting micro structures. Tips are fabricated with modes LP02 and LP21 and their shapes and output intensity distribution are compared. The application of the micro structures as optical tweezers is demonstrated with the manipulation of yeast cells.

“…Spinning of trapped particle around an axis parallel to optical axis can be realized through rotation of high-order mode, much similar to the mechanism in the fiber dualbeam traps. Strategies used in dual-beam fiber traps are still efficient: mechanical rotation of trapping fibers [69,70], or mode modulation [71,72]. Figure 3e shows a twin core fiber optical tweezers with an in-fiber integrated Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI).…”

An optical trap forms a restoring optical force field to immobilize and manipulate tiny objects. A fiber optical trap is capable of establishing the restoring optical force field using one or a few pieces of optical fiber, and it greatly simplifies the optical setup by removing bulky optical components, such as microscope objectives from the working space. It also inherits other major advantages of optical fibers: flexible in shape, robust against disturbance, and highly integrative with fiber-optic systems and on-chip devices. This review will begin with a concise introduction on the principle of optical trapping techniques, followed by a comprehensive discussion on different types of fiber optical traps, including their structures, functionalities and associated fabrication techniques. A brief outlook to the future development and potential applications of fiber optical traps is given at the end.

“…The fiber taper can strongly focus the laser beam with a lens-like structure, allowing a 3D SSOT to be achieved [36]. This structure is easy to fabricate with a commercial optical fiber by chemical etching [37,38,39], polishing [40], or heating-and-drawing [36]. However, it has the limitation of a short working distance and fixed SSOT due to the firm, sharp structure of the fiber taper.…”

Optofluidics is an exciting new area of study resulting from the fusion of microfluidics and photonics. It broadens the application and extends the functionality of microfluidics and has been extensively investigated in biocontrol, molecular diagnosis, material synthesis, and drug delivery. When light interacts with a microfluidic system, optical force and/or photothermal effects may occur due to the strong interaction between light and liquid. Such opto-physical effects can be used for optical manipulation and sensing due to their unique advantages over conventional microfluidics and photonics, including their simple fabrication process, flexible manipulation capability, compact configuration, and low cost. In this review, we summarize the latest progress in fiber optofluidic (FOF) technology based on optical force and photothermal effects in manipulation and sensing applications. Optical force can be used for optofluidic manipulation and sensing in two categories: stable single optical traps and stable combined optical traps. The photothermal effect can be applied to optofluidics based on two major structures: optical microfibers and optical fiber tips. The advantages and disadvantages of each FOF technology are also discussed.
