Product Description
Using light to manipulate microscopic objects as small as a single atom, optical tweezers have revolutionized several areas of physics, especially biophysics through the manipulation of cells, bacteria, and DNA. Bringing together key papers on optical tweezers and their applications, this collection covers the creation, design, use, and applications of optical tweezers. It discusses key developments in each area of physics that has been impacted by these tweezers and traps. The editors, well-known pioneers in the field, also provide an introduction and overview of each topic.
