Near-field manipulation of interparticle forces through resonant absorption, optical binding, and dispersion forces

Abstract: The relative motions of two or more neutral particles, subject to optical trapping forces within a beam, are influenced by intrinsic inter-particle forces. The fundamental character of such forces is well-known and usually derives from dispersion interactions. However, the throughput of moderately intense (off-resonant) laser light can significantly modify the form and magnitude of these intrinsic forces. This optical binding effect is distinct from the optomechanical interactions involved in optical tweezers,… Show more
