[0002] The light spot formed by the strong focus of the laser beam is like a "trap" for dielectric particles. The particles are trapped in it. If the focused light spot is moved, the particles will move with the light spot. Such a strong focused light spot can perform micro-manipulations such as capturing, moving and rotating particles, just like a pair of "tweezers", so it is called optical tweezers.

[0044] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.
[0045] Acousto-optic deflector, or AOD for short, is a device made based on the deflection principle that can change the angle of the laser according to the interaction mechanism.
[0046] In view of the problem that usually only rectangular arrays can be obtained when an optical tweezers array is generated using an acousto-optic deflector, the present invention proposes a method for generating a special optical tweezers array. The method is based on modulating the acousto-optic deflector in different ways to obtain an optical tweezers array with a specific shape.
[0047] The "special" in the special optical tweezers array of the present invention is relative to the conventional rectangular array. Any shape different from the rectangular array can be called a special array, such as an octagon, equilateral triangle, parallelogram, isosceles right triangle, and other irregular shapes formed by light spots.
[0048] In some embodiments of the present invention, a method for generating a special optical tweezers array uses two mutually perpendicularly arranged acousto-optic deflectors to process the laser beam in sequence, and performs time-sharing scanning modulation or time-sharing scanning and superposition modulation of multi-frequency functions on the two acousto-optic deflectors respectively, so as to generate a special optical tweezers array with a special shape arranged by light spots on a two-dimensional plane.
[0049] Here, two mutually perpendicularly arranged acousto-optic deflectors refer to the one-dimensional light trap arrays generated by the two acousto-optic deflectors being perpendicular to each other. For example, one acousto-optic deflector is placed vertically so that it can generate a one-dimensional light trap array perpendicular to the ground when it acts independently; and the other acousto-optic deflector is placed horizontally so that it can generate a one-dimensional light trap array parallel to the ground when it acts independently.
[0050] In the embodiment, time-sharing scanning modulation refers to cyclically inputting multiple set modulation frequencies and the duration of each modulation frequency into the acousto-optic deflector; the set modulation frequencies appear in sequence to form a modulation cycle, which is cyclically cycled; when the modulation cycle time is short, the naked eye cannot distinguish the flickering of the light spot, and the light spots appear to appear at the same time, thereby generating a special optical tweezers array with a special shape on a two-dimensional plane.
[0051] Multi-frequency function modulation refers to the simultaneous input of a modulation signal containing multiple radio frequencies into the acousto-optic deflector. The amplitude and phase of each radio frequency can be set independently. After passing through the acousto-optic crystal, each radio frequency corresponds to a different diffraction angle, presenting multiple light spots in the optical path.
[0052] In some embodiments, after the laser is shaped, it is sequentially sent to one of the acousto-optic deflectors, the conjugate optical path module and the other acousto-optic deflector for processing to generate a special optical tweezers array. The conjugate optical path module here can be a 4f optical path system composed of a pair of lenses, which is used to conjugate the light spot at a certain position to another position. By using the conjugate optical path module, the diffraction efficiency of the AOD can be increased, and stray light signals can be filtered out at the same time.
[0053] By adopting the method in the above embodiment, a special optical tweezers array in the shape of an octagon, an equilateral triangle, a parallelogram, an isosceles right triangle or other irregular shapes arranged by light spots can be generated by adopting time-sharing scanning modulation or time-sharing scanning and superposition modulation of multi-frequency functions; of course, based on the idea of the present invention, the special arrays that can be generated are not limited to the shapes listed above, and they are not listed one by one here.
