Figures & Tables

Fig. 1. Schematic diagrams of (a) the experimental setup and the opto-conveyor. R1, reflection mirror 1; L1, L2, L3, and L4, lenses. SL and ST denote the long and short axes of the opto-conveyor. FL and FT represent the driving and confining forces acting on the microparticle. The azimuthal angle α denotes the angle between the longitudinal direction and the y′ direction. The two insets show the schematic diagrams of the opto-conveyor for azimuthal angles of 0° and 90°, respectively. (b) The optical gradient force and (c) the optical scattering force (FS) acting on the microsphere, respectively. FGL and FGT denote the longitudinal and transverse components of the optical gradient forces, respectively. FSy′ and FSz′ denote the components of the optical scattering forces along the y′ and z′ directions. FST and FSL are the transverse and longitudinal components of FSy′, respectively. (d) The measured elliptical spot of the opto-conveyors on the substrate. The Gaussian waists along long and short axes are estimated as 55 μm and 4.3 μm, respectively.
