Novel optical trapping tool generation and storage controlled by light

Abstract

We propose a novel system of an optical trapping tool using a dark-bright soliton pulse-propagating within an add/drop optical filter. The multiplexing signals with different wavelengths of the dark soliton are controlled and amplified within the system. The dynamic behavior of dark bright soliton interaction is analyzed and described. The storage signal is controlled and tuned to be an optical probe which can be configured as the optical tweezer. The optical tweezer storage is embedded within the add/drop optical filter system. By using some suitable parameters, we found that the tweezers storage time of 1.2 ns is achieved. Therefore, the generated optical tweezers can be stored and amplified within the design system. In application, the optical tweezers can be stored and trapped light/atom, which can be transmitted and recovered by using the proposed system. © 2010 World Scientific Publishing Company.
