University of Colorado: Ph Et Interactive Simulations: Optical Tweezers and Applications

Curated by ACT

Did you ever imagine that you can use light to move a microscopic plastic bead? Explore the forces on the bead or slow time to see the interaction with the laser's electric field. Use the optical tweezers to manipulate a single strand of DNA and explore the physics of tiny molecular motors.
