Characterization of nanoparticle size distributions using a microfluidic device with integrated optical microcavities

We introduce a method for analyzing the physical properties of nanoparticles in fluids via the competition between viscous drag and optical forces in a microfluidic device with integrated optical microcavities. The optical microcavity acts as a combined optical trap and sensor, such that the time du...
