Original microtools for optical tweezers – from ideas to applications
Over the years, optical tweezers have been enriched with various features, such as fluorescence microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, cells sorting. However, most of them require specialized and expensive equipment. In contrast, I report on unique and relatively simple microtools manufactured with 3-dimensional two-photon laser lithography. I demonstrate different types of optically-trapped microtools, each designed for specific applications. I confront the ideas with experimental results and discuss the most successful projects.
