Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to optical devices technologies fields, and in particular to a kind of optical wrench.
Background technique
Optical tweezer can using distribution of light intensity spatial variations formed gradient force particle is steadily captured light field most strength i.e.
The focal position of light beam can drive particle to move together when laser beam is mobile, realize and manipulate to the three-dimensional precise of particle.Light
From AT&T Labs scientist A.Ashkin since invention in 1986, research and application are rapidly developed tweezer technology,
Especially in life science, optical tweezer has become indispensable tool, can be used to manipulate particle, study the quiet of biomone
State and dynamic mechanical behavior even carry out accurate operation to large biological molecule.
Optical wrench is to irradiate particle on the basis of optical tweezer technology using the light beam with angular momentum (AM), imprisoning
While particle, part angular momentum is passed into particle, so as to cause its rotation, that is, in optical tweezer to the Three dimensional steerable of particle
On the basis of increase one-dimensional angular manipulation again.Nineteen ninety-five He et al. observes photon trajectory angular momentum to grain in an experiment at first
The transmitting of son, and realize the manipulation using optics spiral to fine particle.There are two types of the angular momentums of light, one is with light beam
The relevant spin angular momentaum of polarization characteristic (SAM) needs particle to have stronger birefringent characteristic when using this light beam；It is another
Kind angular momentum is orbital angular momentum (OAM) relevant to the helical phase structure of light beam, and this light beam is also commonly known as spiral
Light, light vortex etc..Since the quantum number of spin angular momentaum only has ± 1, and the quantum number of orbital angular momentum can be very big, in phase
With under the requirement of revolving speed, optical power needed for the high light beam of orbital quantum number can be much smaller；Simultaneously as vortex beams center
There are phase singularity, central light strengths zero, so being had compared with the optical tweezer for using common laser beam using the optical tweezer of vortex beams
There is stronger axial direction to catch sunken power, lifting same sample only needs seldom laser power, this, which is just considerably reduced, becomes trapped carefully
Born of the same parents are by the danger destroyed.
Optical fiber optical tweezers are to generate optical trap using the laser beam of fiber exit to realize the manipulation to fine particle.Due to
Optical fiber optical tweezers have independent optical path, separate ligh trap and its manipulation with optical microscopy, efficiently solve traditional optical tweezer instrument
The drawbacks of device.The optical fiber that Constable in 1993 et al. is propagated using two Accurate collimations, in opposite directions forms stable ligh trap success
Realize the capture of polystyrene sphere and active dry yeasr.2004, three optical fiber light of Japanese Masahiro Ikeda et al.
Trap realizes the suspension of symmetrical plasticity speck body in liquid, and realizes slewing maneuver.Domestic Harbin Engineering University's model is vertical
Wave group has carried out various researchs to single, double optical fiber optical tweezers, devises twin-core fiber optical tweezer, realizes the three-dimensional to particle
Capture.
Since optical wrench needs vortex beams, and the generation of vortex beams is still a present difficult point.Tradition generates
The method of vortex beams have geometric optics mode conversion method, spiral phase plate method, calculate holography method, liquid crystal spatial light modulation method,
Laser directly output method etc., that there are conversion system structures is complicated for these methods, optical transform loss is big, spiral topological charge is single or
Impure, more difficult acquisition stabilized light source etc. one or many-sided disadvantage.So an important research direction of optical wrench is small
It is type, integrated with optical fiber.Bristol university, Britain Siyuan professor Yu is based on waveguide Whispering-gallery-mode resonance using a kind of
The OAM ballistic device of chamber, the large-scale integrated for opening orbital angular momentum photonic device obtain approach；University of Southern California is by circular polarization
Gaussian beam be incident on square fibre core, annulus index distribution special optical fiber in, can be in optical fiber of the length less than 1cm
Inspire the OAM mould that quantum number reaches 9.Zhejiang University is old, which to apply, clean is realized by controlling incident angle based on LP21The monochromatic light of mould
Fiber optical optical tweezers system.
However it is generally existing following insufficient in current technology:
1. the method for spatial light pattern conversion when being used for optical fiber optical tweezers, needs to carry out in the incidence end of optical fiber accurate mostly
Coupling, it is ensured that the mode specified in excitation fiber, coupling efficiency is lower, and insertion loss is larger.
2. the method for spatial light pattern conversion is when being used for optical fiber optical tweezers, when needing to excite different OAM modes, optical fiber
The coupling of incidence end needs to correspond to different modes and is adjusted correspondingly, and control structure is complicated, and adjustment time is long, is not suitable for
It is adjusted in dynamic.
3. existing all -fiber mode conversion method needs the photonic crystal to inclination long-period gratings or special construction
Optical fiber is reversed, and is not also suitable for dynamic and is adjusted.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is that the current optical wrench insertion loss of solution is big, is not suitable for the technical problems such as mode dynamic adjustment,
Provide a kind of optical wrench.
The technical solution adopted by the invention is as follows:
A kind of optical wrench is set gradually including laser, less fundamental mode optical fibre, optical fiber probe and along the less fundamental mode optical fibre
