Optofluidics and Optoelectronic Tweezers
Optofluidics is the process of integrating the capabilities of optical and fluidic systems to achieve novel functionalities that can benefit from both. Among the novel capabilities that an optical system can bring to the table is the ability to manipulate objects of interest in a liquid media. In the case of biological samples, the objects of interest consist mainly of cells and viruses, wherea...
متن کاملOptoelectronic Tweezers for Cell and Nanoparticle Manipulation
Optoelectronic tweezers (OET) is a new tool for noninvasive, parallel manipulation of cells and/or micro/nanoparticles. Based on light-induced dielectrophoresis, OET can trap and sort colloidal particles, biological cells, nanowires and nanoparticles using a digital light projector. In this paper, we will present the principle and recent experimental results of OET. Keywords-Optoelectronic twee...
متن کاملImproving the optical properties of thin film plasmonic solar cells of InP absorber layer using nanowires
In this paper, a thin-film InP-based solar cell designed and simulated. The proposed InP solar cell has a periodic array of plasmonic back-reflector, which consists of a silver layer and two silver nanowires. The indium tin oxide (ITO) layer also utilized as an anti-reflection coating (ARC) layer on top. The design creates a light-trapping structure by using a plasmonic back-reflector and an an...
متن کاملMultimode assembly of phenanthroline nanowires decorated with gold nanoparticles.
Self-assembled nanohybrids of a 1,10-phenanthroline derivative and Au nanoparticles exhibit different optoelectronic properties, as a consequence of the different arrangements of the nanoparticles on the surface of the different-sized phenanthroline scaffolds.
متن کاملIn-situ Raman measurement of an individual Silicon nanowire trapped using optoelectronic tweezers (OET)
We demonstrate in-situ Raman measurements of individual silicon nanowires (100 nm diameter, 10-20 m in length) which are trapped using optoelectronic tweezers (OET). OCIS codes: (300.0300) Spectroscopy, Raman; (140.7010) Trapping. Optoelectronic tweezers (OET) is a dynamic, non-invasive optical manipulation tool that works based on the principle of light-induced dielectrophoretic force. It is c...
