Abstract
Optical traps using different configurations of optical fibers facilitate the trapping, manipulation, and characterization of particles ranging from dielectric beads, through anisotropic particles such as rare-earth doped nanorods. Here, we will introduce several such configurations, including the quasi-Bessel beam optical fiber tweezers and the optical nanofiber, and illustrate the variety of measurements that can be made depending on the configuration chosen. These optical traps provide us with unique opportunities to explore topics such as spin-orbit coupling and emission spectroscopy.
