Abstract

The use of a patterned surface to create an optical conveyor for spherical, and near spherical particles is explored. Using a surface constructed of a repeating micron-sized motif, we simulate the effects of moving a particle in the near-field region above the surface, as well as exploring optical force changes in the axis perpendicular to the surface resulting from changes in size of the particles, and the choice of incident wavelength.
