Spinning of a submicron sphere by Airy beams

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show that by employing two incoherent counter-propagating Airy beams, we can manipulate a submicron sphere to spin around a transverse axis. We can control not only the spinning speed, but also the direction of the spinning axis by changing the polarization directions of Airy beams.
