Optical tweezers have proved to be a powerful tool with a wide range of applications. The gradient force plays a vital role in the stable optical trapping of nano-objects. The scalar method is convenient and effective for analyzing the gradient force in traditional optical tra ...
Nonlinear responses of nanoparticles induce enlightening phenomena in optical tweezers. With the gradual increase in optical intensity, effects from saturable absorption (SA) and reverse SA (RSA) arise in sequence and thereby modulate the nonlinear properties of materials. In ...
The tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) provides a non-destructive and label-free molecular detection approach with high sensitivity due to the hotspot excited at tip apex, which depends crucially on the tip parameters. Here, we employed an Au cladded atomic force microscop ...
