The main obstacle for optical imaging or for sending information through turbid media such
as paint, clouds and biological tissue is the random scattering of light. Owing to its immense …

Optical forces can be used to manipulate biological and colloidal material in a non-contact
manner. This forms the foundation of a wealth of exciting science, particularly in the fields of …

The pace of innovations in the field of optical trapping has ramped up in the past couple of
years. The implementation of structured light, leading to groundbreaking inventions such as …

Stochastic resetting is prevalent in natural and man-made systems, giving rise to a long
series of nonequilibrium phenomena. Diffusion with stochastic resetting serves as a …

Two limitations of additive manufacturing methods that arise from layer-based fabrication are
slow speed and geometric constraints (which include poor surface quality). Both limitations …

Nonlinear holography has been identified as a vital platform for optical multiplexing
holography because of the appearance of new optical frequencies. However, due to …

Optical tweezers, a simple and robust implementation of optical micromanipulation
technologies, have become a standard tool in biological, medical and physics research …

We propose a new iterative algorithm for obtaining optimal holograms targeted to the
generation of arbitrary three dimensional structures of optical traps. The algorithm basic idea …

We experimentally demonstrate a class of tractor beams created by coherently superposing
coaxial Bessel beams. These optical conveyors have periodic intensity variations along their …

During the last decade, optical tweezers have been transformed by the combined availability
of spatial light modulators and the speed of low-cost computing to drive them. Holographic …
