Abstract :
This paper presents an electrostatic controlled near-field nano-opto-probe (NOP), which has high potential for nano-particle trapping, transport and release. Infrared light trapping is utilized to avoid possible optical damage to the biological particles. Within the scheme of nano-electro-mechanical systems (NEMS), this NOP combines the advantages of compact integration, precise nm-scale positioning and high resonant frequencies.
