  • COMSOL DAY: Tractor Beams, Optical Traps and Nanoparticle Manipulation

    At the COMSOL Day in Moscow, head of ITMO’s International Research Laboratory of Nano-Opto-Mechanics Alexander Shalin gave a talk on the new algorithms for multiphysics modeling and optical power calculations using COMSOL Multiphysics software. He demonstrated how the program can be used to model the excitement of unidirectional surface plasmon-polaritons and their optomechanical effect on nano-objects on metal surfaces. Shalin’s team uses these methods to acquire fundamental results in optomechanics and improve the qualities of such technologies as tractor beams, optical trapping, positioning of nanoparticles and other.
