  • Optical eigenmode imaging
    Patent number: 9568741
    Abstract: A method of optimising at least one measure that is a quadratic function of a wavefunction, such as the spot size of a laser, the method comprising: superimposing a plurality of wavefunctions; determining a relationship between the superimposed wavefunctions and the quadratic measure, and using the determined relationship to identify the superimposed wavefunctions that provide a desired or optimised quadratic measure.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 13, 2011
    Date of Patent: February 14, 2017
    Assignee: University Court of The University of St Andrews
    Inventors: Kishan Dholakia, Jorg Baumgartl, Michael Mazilu, Anna Chiara De Luca

  • Optical manipulation of micro-particles
    Patent number: 9176313
    Abstract: A method for manipulating one or more particles comprising exposing the particle(s) to a beam of radiation that is able to lift and or impart an acceleration to the particle(s) to cause it to move in a curved trajectory.
