摘要

Abstract

Osmotic conditions play an important role in the cell properties of human red blood cells (RBCs)

which are crucial for the pathological analysis of some blood diseases such as malaria. Over the past decades

numerous efforts have mainly focused on the study of the RBC biomechanical properties that arise from the unique deformability of erythrocytes. Here

we demonstrate nonlinear optical effects from human RBCs suspended in different osmotic solutions. Specifically

we observe self-trapping and scattering-resistant nonlinear propagation of a laser beam through RBC suspensions under all three osmotic conditions

where the strength of the optical nonlinearity increases with osmotic pressure on the cells. This tunable nonlinearity is attributed to optical forces

particularly the forward-scattering and gradient forces. Interestingly

in aged blood samples (with lysed cells)

a notably different nonlinear behavior is observed due to the presence of free hemoglobin. We use a theoretical model with an optical force-mediated nonlocal nonlinearity to explain the experimental observations. Our work on light self-guiding through scattering bio-soft-matter may introduce new photonic tools for noninvasive biomedical imaging and medical diagnosis.
