Note: Toward multiple addressable optical trapping

Alexei R. Faustov, Michael R. Webb, and David R. Walt

We describe a setup for addressable optical trapping in which a laser source is focused on a digital micromirror device and generates an optical trap in a microfluidic cell. In this paper, we report a proof-of-principle single beam/single micromirror/single three-dimensional traparrangement that should serve as the basis for a multiple-trap instrument.
