Abstract

We report on a novel, to the best of our knowledge, optical scheme of an annular optical trap based on an acousto-optic tunable spatial filter. Design of the optical trap is proposed and validated. Experimental demonstration with polystyrene microspheres includes controllable arrangement of freely floating particles into a circular pattern, aggregation, and disaggregation of the particles. Dynamical adjustment of the trapping field potential diameter is achieved by programmable frequency-swept controlling of the acousto-optic filter.

Supplement 1       Supplemental materials.
Visualization 1       Particle aggregation is performed by means of a ring-shaped dynamical optical trap. The ring-shaped optical trap is based on a noncollinear acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF), which is fed with a downswept frequency signal.
Visualization 2       Particle disaggregation is performed by means of a ring-shaped dynamical optical trap. The ring-shaped optical trap is based on a noncollinear acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF), which is fed with an upswept frequency signal.
