Enhanced Signal-to-Noise and Fast Calibration of Optical Tweezers Using Single Trapping Events

Enhanced Signal-to-Noise and Fast Calibration of Optical Tweezers Using Single Trapping Events

The trap stiffness us the key property in using optical tweezers as a force transducer. Force reconstruction via maximum-likelihood-estimator analysis (FORMA) determines the optical trap stiffness based on estimation of the particle velocity from statistical trajectories. Using a modification of thi...
