Structured light and its applications : an introduction to phase-structured beams and nanoscale optical forces.

This contributed volume presents the latest in structured light and the non-contact optical manipulation of matter. It surges past mature technology and applications such as focused laser trapping and optical tweezers to optical vortices and holographic optical trapping. Andrews and his contributors...
