Description

The melting and pulling of parabolic microstructure single fiber optical tweezers is made method
(1) technical field
The present invention relates to the optical fiber technology field, particularly a kind of parabolic microstructure single fiber optical tweezers and melting and pulling thereof are made method.
(2) background technology
1986 Askin (Opt.Lett.11,288-290,1986) single beam laser introduced high-NA objective formed the three-dimensional optical potential well, realized three dimensions control to fine particle.Realized on the x-y plane with along forming the gradient force potential well on the z direction of principal axis simultaneously with the laser of a branch of strong focusing, thus stable trapped particle.Because this ligh trap only uses beam of laser to form, so claim that this ligh trap is a single beam gradient force ligh trap, the usually said light tweezer of people just.
At present, people's available light tweezer pair cell, organelle and chromosome is caught, sorting, manipulation, crooked cytoskeleton, overcome bacterium rotary power that molecular motor power causes, measure motor albumen acting force, and film system carried out quantitative examination.In addition, optical tweezer technology also can be applicable to fields such as the catching of molecule, arrangement and micro-manufacturing.
Conventional light tweezer instrument all is the laser beam that will send from laser instrument, behind beam expander and dimmer, enter the biological microscope system, assembled the back by bidirectional color beam splitter and high power microcobjective and form the optical focus ligh trap and since the effect of gradient fields ligh trap with the particle capture in the sample near focus.
Bulky based on microscopical conventional light tweezer instrument, the sample one-movement-freedom-degree is little.Owing to it has the characteristic that physical dimension is big and operating distance is short, thereby limited the application of normal optical tweezer, made it be difficult to handle the particulate that is arranged in narrow location (as: deep hole), the also difficult multiple light forceps of realizing is handled.The drawbacks limit that these are intrinsic its application as the little manipulate tools of biomone.The optical fiber optical tweezers technology of new development solves these problems preferably.Utilize two relative single tapered lens single-mode fiber light tweezers of fibre core can catch the polystyrene spheres of micron dimension.But the light tweezer that utilizes two optical fiber to constitute requires the light beam of optical fiber outgoing spatially to aim at, two optical fiber must move simultaneously when mobile, still have inconvenience in the operation.Imagine that easily if can utilize simple optical fiber to constitute the light tweezer, then operation can be more simple, system cost also can reduce greatly.Effect is not enough to offset the gravity of particle but single tapered lensed fiber is to particle trapping, can not realize the 3 D captured of particle.
Canadian R.S.Taylor (Opt.Exp.11 in 2003,2775-2782,2003) etc. the people utilizes the method for corrosion and plated film, made a kind of metallization optical fiber probe point of hollow, utilize the electrostatic attraction and the scattering of light power of needle point to reach balance cleverly, catch and handled the glass granules that is immersed in the water, realized the 3 D captured of particle.But need repeatedly to corrode in this method process, the step complexity, long processing time, and also process need use noxious materials such as hydrofluorite, so processing environment is required high.
(3) summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of melting and pulling that can be used for small items is carried out 3 D captured and the single fiber optical tweezers handled to make method with parabolic microstructure.
The object of the present invention is achieved like this:
1.1, get the coat of one section optical fiber 1 peeling optical fibre, fibre cladding is cleaned up, be fixed in the groove 3;
1.2, the optical fiber 1 that utilizes 2 pairs of oxyhydrogen flames to be in horizontality heats and impose axial tension, makes optical fiber local softening part gradually by drawing-down, stops heating when the thinnest part of optical fiber reaches 25-35 μ m, simultaneously the stretching of stop slot 3;
1.3, regulate fiber position, to the heating once more of drawing-down part, and stretching optical fiber 1 fast;
1.4, when optical fiber 1 is broken, because capillary effect forms a pair of fine pin 4 of low-light with parabolic shape naturally;
1.5, laser coupled is advanced optical fiber 1, when laser just can form the photo potential trap of stable three-dimensional after 4 outgoing of optical fiber pin at optical fiber pin front end, thereby realize single fiber optical tweezers.
The present invention also has some technical characterictics like this:
1, the described coat 25-35mm that utilizes optical fiber wire-stripping pliers peeling optical fibre in the middle of optical fiber 1 cleans up fibre cladding with alcohol and ether mixed liquor;
2, described groove 3 is V-type groove movably;
3, the described optical fiber pin 4 parabolic shape optical fiber end structure that is micron dimension;
4, described optical fiber 1 has single parabolic microstructure;
5, described optical fiber 1 is single-mode fiber;
6, described optical fiber 1 is multimode optical fiber.
The present invention at first utilizes oxyhydrogen flame that the optical fiber that is in horizontality is heated and imposes axial tension, makes optical fiber local softening part gradually by drawing-down, reach certain size after, stop heating and stretch.The adjusting fiber position, the drawing-down part just is in the oxyhydrogen flame edge in the middle of making, to the heating once more of middle drawing-down part, and quick stretching optical fiber, when optical fiber is broken, because capillary effect forms a pair of fine pin of low-light with parabolic shape naturally.
Ultimate principle of the present invention is that the particle that is in the light field is subjected to two kinds of basic light pressures---along the scattering force of incident beam direction with along the gradient force of intensity gradient direction.The gradient force that forms when light field is greater than its scattering force with when absorbing the power that produces, to the active gradient force of particulate with particle capture near beam focus, form the ligh trap that produces by the optical gradient field.
For the particle of determining, the with a tight waist of light field is the key factor that can light field form potential well, can utilize the method for parsing accurately to describe light field influence with a tight waist based on the light tweezer theory of ray model, then can not form the photo potential trap when gauss light beam waist is big.Conclusion is got up, and very little with a tight waist and bigger beam divergence angle must be arranged, and could produce enough strong gradient force, with particle-stabilised being strapped in the photo potential trap.
Fig. 4 in the accompanying drawing-5 is the emergent light field distribution of the single fiber optical tweezers of parabolic structure, adopts BPM (beam propagation method) to carry out simulation calculation, is taken into and penetrates optical wavelength 0.98 μ m, and surrounding medium is a water, refractive index 1.33, optical fiber pin refractive index 1.46.
From Fig. 4-5 as can be seen, laser is after the single fiber optical tweezers outgoing of parabolic structure, form a minimum light field with a tight waist at optical fiber needle tip place, this light field decays rapidly along optical propagation direction, also shows the Gradient distribution characteristic of rapid decay simultaneously on the direction of propagating perpendicular to light.As shown in Figure 6, the small items 5 that is opposite to wherein from this light field with very little beam radius and big Gradient distribution characteristic produces certain gradient force, this gradient force points to the strength of light, and be enough to offset the gravity of light scattering power and object, small items can be caught and is constrained near the optical fiber pin front end.
