Ballistic supercavitating nanoparticles driven by single Gaussian beam optical pushing and pulling forces
Control of small particles in fluid can have a range of applications. The authors explore a phenomenon that allows an extremely low friction environment around a nanoparticle, demonstrating high-speed nanoparticles driven by optical forces in both directions of an optical beam.
