All optical dynamic nanomanipulation with active colloidal tweezers

Current particle manipulation techniques using light are limited by optical effects, such as diffraction, or lack of dynamic capabilities. The authors report a strategy that combines conventional optical traps with plasmonic tweezers to gain maneuverability of the trapped particles while maintaining...
