摘要

Abstract

Optomechanics arises from the photon momentum and its exchange with low-dimensional objects. It is well known that optical radiation exerts pressure on objects

pushing them along the light path. However

optical pulling of an object against the light path is still a counter-intuitive phenomenon. Herein

we present a general concept of optical pulling-opto-thermoelectric pulling (OTEP)-where the optical heating of a light-absorbing particle using a simple plane wave can pull the particle itself against the light path. This irradiation orientation-directed pulling force imparts self-restoring behaviour to the particles

and three-dimensional (3D) trapping of single particles is achieved at an extremely low optical intensity of 10

-2

mW μm

-2

. Moreover

the OTEP force can overcome the short trapping range of conventional optical tweezers and optically drive the particle flow up to a macroscopic distance. The concept of self-induced opto-thermomechanical coupling is paving the way towards freeform optofluidic technology and lab-on-a-chip devices.
