From: Plasmon-assisted trapping of nanoparticles using a silver-nanowire-embedded PMMA nanofiber
Plasmon-assisted trapping for 700 nm PS nanoparticles.
(a) Optical microscope image of the AgNW-embedded PMMA nanofiber immersed in the PS nanoparticles suspension. (b1–b4) Plasmon-assisted trapping of nanoparitcles A and B. Input optical power of 980 nm laser is 10 mW. (c1–c3) Releasing of the trapped nanoparticles with the laser turned off. (d,e) Histograms and the corresponding fitted Gaussian curves of nanoparticles A and B’s positions in y direction from t = 11.88 to 15.84 s. (f) Positions of the two nanoparticles in x direction.
