Optical trapping is a method for non-mechanical manipulation of small particles.
The method has many possible applications in various fields of physics and biology. To read more about the basic principle of optical trapping, click here . Currently, we run research projects concerning optical tweezers and optical levitation . The optical trapping research is led by Docent Dag Hanstorp and performed by Jonas Enger and Petter Hagberg . The group is always interested in graduation-project students.
