Abstract: In this article the stable process of the dielectric particle in optical trap is investigated. The influence of the mechanical parameters as the radius of dielectric particle, viscosity of surrounding fluid on the usefulness of optical trap using pulsed Gaussian beam is simulated and discussed. Key words: Optical trap, Pulsed Gaussian beam, Optical force, Brownian motion. 1. Introduction In 1970, Ashkin [1] first demonstrated the optical trapping of particles using the radiation force produced by the focused continuous-wave (CW) Gaussian beam. Since then the optical trap and tweezers has been a powerful tool for manipulating dielectric particles [2, 3]. In works [4-7], the discussions about stability of the optical trap and the tweezers as well as the effectively controlling dielectric particles like gold nanoparticles and live membrane, have been conducted taking into account of Brownian force. But, the stabilizing process during the pulsing of the optical beam and the absolutely-stable conditions of dielectric particles were not clear. Therefore, it is desirable to advance the studies of above questions for the pulsing optical trap. Up to now, we have paid attention to optical trap using counter-propagating pulsed Gaussian beams [8] and after discussing about its stability in general, but not in detail. So, in this paper the stable process during pulsing time of optical tweezer using pulsed Gaussian beam and influence of mechanical parameters on its stability and usefulness are interested. This paper is organized as follows: In Sec. II we introduce the set of Langevin equations concerning thermal fluctuations of the probe with appearance of the Gradient optical force acting on dielectric nano particles in the optical tweezer pulsed Gaussian beams (PGB),; In section III, we present the radial variances of glass nano particles in water, which are trapped by picoseconds PGB and the discussions about stability of them and usefulness of tweezer. 2. Theory Two PGBs with the total energy, U, duration time, τ, and beam waist, W 0 , are considered to trap fluctuating dielectric nano particles with radius, a, refractive index, n 1 in the fluid with viscosity, γ, and refractive index n 2 , which is placed at z=0 (Fig.1). We consider the gradient optical force is induced by PGB acting on a Rayleigh dielectric particle. The polarization direction of the electric field is assumed to be along the x axis. For simplicity, we assume that the radius (a) of the particle is much smaller than the wavelength of the laser (i.e., λ <<a ), in this case we can treat the dielectric particle as a 1 point dipole. We also assume that the refractive index of the dielectric particle is 1 n and 21 nn >> . Assuming a low Reynold's number regime [9], the Brownian motion of the dielectric in the optical force field is described by a set of Langevin equations as follows: ( ) ( ) ( ) , 2 grad t F t D h t ρ γρ ρ γ + = r r r r & (1) where ( ) ( ) ( ) ,t x t y t ρ =     r is the dielectric particle’s position in the fluid plate, 6 a γ π η = is its friction coefficient, η is the fluid viscosity, ( ) ( ) ( ) 2 2 , x y D h t D h t h t γ γ   =   r is a vector of independent white Gaussian random processes describing the Brownian force forces, / B D k T γ = is the diffusion coefficient, T is the absolute temperature, and k B is the Boltzmann constant, ρ ,grad F  is the gradient optical force acting on dielectric particle, which is given by [4,8] ( ) ( ) [ ] 002, / ~ ,2 ˆ , WcntItF grad ερρβρρ ρ −=  (2) where is the scattering cross section, ( ) ( ) [ ] 2/14 223 0 2 2 +−= mman επβ is the polarizability, ρ ˆ is the unit radial vector, 0 /W ρ ρ = % , 0 W is the waist radius of Gaussian beam at the plane 0z = , 21 / nnm = , and I is the intensity distribution for the PGB as follows [4]: [ ] [ ] 22 ~ 2exp ~ 2exp)( tPtI −−= ρρ (3) where ( ) 3/ 2 2 0 2 2 /P U W π τ   =   , and τ / ~ tt = , , λπ /2 = k is the wave number. We compute the two-dimensional motion and the radial variance (position) of a dielectric particle in fluid using the Brownian dynamic simulation method. A particle/bead- spring model is employed to represent the dielectric particle, and the following equation of motion is computed for each particle: 2 Fig. 1 (a) The schematic of optical trap.

( ) ( ) ,grad F t ρ ρ r r in Eq. (2) describes the gradient optical force acting on the particle located at position ρ at time t. For example, at beginning time t=0, the dielectric particle is assumed to locate at the position ( ) 0 0t W ρ = = , where W 0 is the beam waist, then we understand that the gradient optical force ( ) tWF grad , 0, ρ  acts on the particle, which will be located at position W ρ + ∆ after a time increment t δ . 3. Simulated Results We interest only on the radial variance of glass particle in the pulsing time (this parameter describes the stability of particle), so the simulation will be computed from beginning moment t=-3τ (or t=0) to ending moment t=3τ (or t=6τ) of the optical pulse. In following numerical simulation we choose fixed parameters as follows: The laser beam with wavelength, m µλ 064.1 = , duration, ps1 = τ , beam waist, JU µ 1.0 = , total energy, JU µ 1.0 = ; The glass particle with refractive index, 592.1 1 = n , radius, nma )202( ÷= ; The fluids have been changed from alcohol methyl with viscosity, , 0.59 . alcohol methyl mPa s η = , to water, 1.00( . ) water mPa s η = , alcohol ethyl, , 1.1( . ) alcohol ethyl mPa s η = , and , 2.4( . ) alcohol ethyl mPa s η = .

Considering the temperature of the fluid is fixed at 20 o C and mass density is chosen to be 3 1000 .kg m ρ − = , and wave length of laser m µλ 064.1 = , using (5) we have n 2 = 1.289. From curves in Fig.2, which discribes the dependence of the stable radius and stable time of patricle in trap, we can see that, with fixed optical parameters, the stability of particle in trap is higher when the radius of particle is shorter. In detail, when trapped particle has radius of ( ) nm2014 ÷ , the stable radius nm s 25 ≈ ρ and stable time ps s 3.3 ≈ τ . It means that the particle oscillates around its center, and the designed optical trap is useful with the particle of ( ) nm2014 ÷ radius. 3 However, the above-mentioned stable conditions changes in different fluid. From Fig.3, we can see the dependence of stable radius and stable time on viscosity of fluid. The same particle, which is mixed in fluid with high viscosity, will be more stable than one, which is mixed in fluid with low viscosity. It is of course that in the fluid with high viscosity, the vividity of particle is lower, and then the Brownian force is lower. In general, to have the stability of dielectric particle in given optical trap, it is convenient to choose a suitable particle, and to mix it in a suitable fluid. 4. Conclusion From above results, we can conlude that: First, the stability of dielectric particle in optical trap depends not only on optical parameters, but also on mechanical parameters as radius of particle, viscosity of fluid, ; Second, one designed optical trap will be useful with the suitable particle, which is mixed in suitable fuid. 4 a [nm] ρ s [nm] Fig.2.
