A new measurement theory for dual-trap optical tweezers shows researchers for the first time how to easily optimize their experiments to limit noise from Brownian movement. You have full access to ...

The Lumicks C-Trap® is a correlative single-molecule system combining optical tweezers with multicolour fluorescence imaging. This enables simultaneous manipulation of trapped molecules of interest ...

Exploiting the hyperfine structure in repulsive light-assisted collisions (LAC) on a 87-Rubidium atom pair in an optical tweezer. When atoms collide, their exact structure—for example ...

We marry the tools of quantum gas microscopy, optical tweezer technology, and high precision spectroscopy in order to gain single-particle control at fundamental length scales and very small energy ...

In molecular shuttles, a ring molecule is threaded onto a linear molecular strand and can move between two portions of the strand, called stations, in response to external stimuli. Chemical ...
