Novel platform allows five types of programmable optothermal manipulation of micro- and nanoparticles - Nanowerk

Researchers have developed an optothermal platform with five manipulation modes - printing, tweezing, rotating, rolling, and shooting - using a single Gaussian laser beam. Switching between the different modes is achieved by simply tuning the optical power or…
