Custom designed optical tweezer for trapping yeast cells

Çobanoğlu, Nur

The goal of this study is developing custom designed optical tweezer which uses two He-Ne lasers (λ=632.8 nm) parallel to each other to trap yeast cells. The characteristic specs of this optical tweezer determined by Brownian Motion of polystyrene beads in water. Stiffness and trapping forces of optical tweezer calculated for laser 1, laser 2 and when both lasers used simultaneously. Laser 2 can trap and move particle to laser 1 and multiple particles can be trapped by the laser 1. After determination of specs of optical tweezer, yeast cells in yogurt culture medium were trapped by lase ...Daha fazlası
