Optical trap** using focused laser beams (laser tweezers) has been proven to be
extremely useful for contactless manipulation of a variety of small objects, including …

Subwavelength features in conjunction with light‐guiding structures have gained significant
interest in recent decades due to their wide range of applications to particle and atom …

We study the thermodynamic properties induced by non-reciprocal interactions between
stochastic degrees of freedom in time-and space-continuous systems. We show that, under …

High precision control of micro-and nanoscale objects in aqueous media is an essential
technology for nanoscience and engineering. Existing methods for particle trap** primarily …

Optical manipulation and label-free characterization of nanoscale structures open up new
possibilities for assembly and control of nanodevices and biomolecules. Optical tweezers …

Among the many works of Arthur Ashkin, many have been devoted to optical tweezers,
optical levitation and optical manipulation of macroscopic particles (“macroscopic” being …

Generalized Lorenz‐Mie theories form a set of analytical approaches dealing with the
interaction between electromagnetic arbitrary shaped beams and a class of particles …

The photonic interactions between a focused Gaussian laser beam and a nanoscopic
particle are highly dependent on exact particle location and focal intensity distribution. So …

This paper is concerned with the Fokker-Planck (FP) description of classical stochastic
systems with discrete time delay. The non-Markovian character of the corresponding …

Many natural and artificial systems are subject to some sort of delay, which can be in the
form of a single discrete delay or distributed over a range of times. Here, we discuss the …
