Abstract:
We propose a novel system of an optical trapping tool using a dark-bright soliton pulse-propagating within an add/drop optical filter. The multiplexing signals with different wavelengths of the dark soliton are controlled and amplified within the system. The dynamic behavior of dark bright soliton interaction is analyzed and described. The storage signal is controlled and tuned to be an optical probe which can be configured as the optical tweezer. The optical tweezer storage is embedded within the add/drop optical filter system. By using some suitable parameters, we found that the tweezers sto

Abstract:
An optical tweezer composed of a strongly focused single-spatial-mode Gaussian beam of a red-detuned 1064-nm laser can confine a single-cesium (Cs) atom at the strongest point of the light intensity. We can use this for coherent manipulation of single-quantum bits and single-photon sources. The trapping lifetime of the atoms in the optical tweezers is very short due to the impact of the background atoms, the parametric heating of the optical tweezer and the residual thermal motion of the atoms. In this paper, we analyzed the influence of the background pressure, the trap frequency of optical t

Abstract:
A groundbreaking work in 1970 by Arthur Ashkin paved the way for developing various optical trapping techniques. Optical tweezers have become an established method for the manipulation of biological objects, due to their noninvasiveness and precise controllability. Recent innovations are accelerating and now enable single-cell manipulation through holographic light structuring. In this review, we provide an overview of recent advances in optical tweezer techniques for studies at the individual cell level. Our review focuses on holographic optical tweezers that utilize active spatial light modu

Abstract:
Optical trapping is widely used in different areas, ranging from biomedical applications, to physics and material sciences. In recent years, optical fiber tweezers have attracted significant attention in the field of optical trapping due to their flexible manipulation, compact structure, and easy fabrication. As a versatile tool for optical trapping and manipulation, optical fiber tweezers can be used to trap, manipulate, arrange, and assemble tiny objects. Here, we review the optical fiber tweezers-based trapping and manipulation, including dual fiber tweezers for trapping and manipulation, s

Abstract:
This thesis describes the experimental and theoretical work that investigated the transfer of orbital angular momentum from light to matter. This was achieved by combining two established areas of laser physics which were "optical tweezers" and Laguerre-Gaussian laser modes. The optical tweezers are essentially a tightly focussed laser beam from a high numerical aperture microscope objective lens, which traps particles in three dimensions just below the beam focus. By incorporating a Laguerre- Gaussian laser mode into the tweezers system, the trapping efficiency was doubled. These improved opt

Abstract:
Single atoms are promising candidates for physically implementing quantum bits, the fundamental unit of quantum information. We have built an apparatus for cooling, trapping and imaging single rubidium atoms in microscopic optical tweezers. The traps are formed from a tightly focused off-resonant laser beam, which traps atoms using the optical dipole force. The traps have a diameter of ~1 μm and a depth of ~1 mK. The novelty of our approach is the use a digital mirror device (DMD) to generate multiple independently movable tweezers from a single laser beam. The DMD consists of an array of m

In the past decades, numerous single-molecule techniques have been developed to investigate individual bio-molecules and cellular machines. While a lot is known about the structure, localization, and interaction partners of such molecules, much less is known about their mechanical properties. To investigate the weak, non-covalent interactions that give rise to the mechanics of and between proteins, an instrument capable of resolving sub-nanometer displacements and piconewton forces is necessary. One of the most prominent biophysical tool with such capabilities is an optical tweezers. Optical t

Optical tweezers is a new technique for research in biological and physical sciences by using the radiation pressure. In this thesis, a diode laser, A = 785nm, maximum power=50mW, was used as the light source and a microscope was used for trapping and imaging. The laser pass through an anamorphic prism and provide an ideal Gaussian laser profile. Before reflecting the laser beam into the microscope, a beam expander and a convex lens expand and change the divergent angle of the laser beam for maximum power delivery and matching the imaging plane of the microscope.

Abstract:
Optical tweezers have become an invaluable tool for measuring and exerting forces in the pico-Newton regime. Force measurements have in the past concentrated on using only one trapped particle as a probe, partly due to the difficulties in tracking more than one par- ticle at high enough frame rate. Recent advances in video camera technology allow the collection of images at several kHz. However, there has been little use of high-speed cameras in optical tweezers, partly due to data management problems and affordability.

The work presented in this thesis explores new multi-disciplinary applications of optical tweezers in the physical and biological sciences. Firstly, the three dimensional trapping of partially silvered sphere in a standard TEM00 optical trap was characterised. These spheres were then coated with an azo dye such that surface-enhanced resonance Raman (SERRS) measurements could be made on a single bead whilst it was simultaneously trapped in 532 nm optical tweezers. The length of time over which the SERRS signal could be recorded was increased, from milli-seconds to minutes, by using 1064 nm opti

Abstract:
This thesis describes the realisation of a novel dipole force trapping method for cold neutral atoms, the optical tweezers. They are formed by imaging a spatial light modulator onto a mirror surface, by an aspherical lens. The spatial light modulator, a digital mirror device, consists of an array 1024 by 768 of micro-mirrors, which can individually be switched between the on and off position with a full frame refresh rate of 4 kHz and hence can create arbitrary light patterns in real time. Atoms are trapped through the dipole force in them. The optical tweezers have a potential depth on the or
