Dynamic optical manipulation using intensity patterns directly projected by a reflective spatial light modulator
We propose a simple method to manipulate microparticles dynamically with intensity-modulated patterns projected by a spatial light modulator (SLM), on which the patterns are controlled by a computer d...

In experiments in which a cluster beam picks up guest molecules by passing through a cell, the detection efficiency may be limited because of cluster beam scattering by the molecular vapor. We present a modified pick-up cell design that reduces cluster deflections and thereby improves the detection of mixed clusters. Its performance is illustrated with the help of a beam of water clusters picking up amino-acid or heavy-water molecules. ©2005 American Institute of Physics
