Optical manipulation of microspheres along a subwavelength optical wire

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The propulsion of 3μm polystyrene spheres along a subwavelength optical wire is demonstrated. Velocities in the range of 715μms are observed. Simulations are carried out to evaluate the evanescent field at the waveguide–water suspension interface.
