In certain medical applications, transmitting an ultrasound beam through the skin to
manipulate a solid object within the human body would be beneficial. Such applications …

Acoustic vortices can transfer angular momentum and trap particles. Here, we show that
particles trapped in airborne acoustic vortices orbit at high speeds, leading to dynamic …

This work aims to model the acoustic radiation forces acting on an elastic sphere placed in
an inviscid fluid. An expression of the axial and transverse forces exerted on the sphere is …

Ubiquitous thermal conduction makes its force effect particularly important in diverse fields,
such as electronic engineering and biochemistry. However, regulating thermal conduction …

Axial and transverse radiation force cross-sections of optical tractor Bessel polarized beams
are theoretically investigated for a dielectric sphere with particular emphasis on the beam …

We present, in our knowledge, the first theoretical demonstration of the possibility to trap and
manipulate particles in three dimensions with the radiation pressure exerted by a single …

An analytical solution for the scattering of an acoustic Bessel beam of any order by a
deformable sphere centered on the beam is used to calculate the acoustic radiation force …

Acoustic waves may force a suspended object in the wavepath to spin by exerting a
radiation torque. Generally, this torque depends on how the incident wave is scattered and …

Demands for high-performance micro/nano manipulations, from the manufacture of
microelectronic and photonic devices, biomedical apparatus, nanoscience and …

Recently, VV Kotlyar et al.[Opt. Lett. 39, 2395 (2014)] have theoretically proposed a novel
kind of three-parameter diffraction-free beam with a crescent profile, namely, the asymmetric …
