eng Abstract:
The basic behavior of microparticles placed in the Gaussian standing wave is studied theoretically and experimentally in this article. It is shown that the optical force depends periodically on the particle size and, as the consequence, the equilibrium object position is alternating between the standing wave antinodes and nodes. For certain particle sizes, the particle confinement is disabled. Experimental confirmation of the theoretical results is briefly discussed.
