| Sumario: | [EN] In this paper, we present the design and implementation of multi-trap optical tweezers based on new quadrifocal kinoform lenses. The phase distribution of these diffractive lenses is characterized by the Silver Mean sequence. The focusing properties of the resulting aperiodic DOEs coined Kinoform Silver Mean Lenses (KSMLs) are numerically examined. It is shown that, under monochromatic illumination, a KSML drives most of the incoming light into four single foci whose focal lengths are related to the Silver ratio. In this way, a KSML improves the diffraction efficiency of binary Fresnel Silver Mean Zone Plates. Through experimental results, the simultaneous trapping of particles in the four focal planes and their three-dimensional manipulation is demonstrated. |
