Article Description

A fiber probe is presented that traps single micro-sized particles and allows detection of their optical properties. The trapping mechanism used is based on fluid suction with a micro-structured optical fiber that has five holes along its cladding. Proof-of-principle experiments with a diluted solution of fluorescently labeled particles are performed. The fiber probe presented here may find various applications in life-science and environmental monitoring.
