Driven colloidal particles in optical potential energy landscapes

<p>The dynamic behaviour of colloidal particles driven across one-dimensional optical potential energy landscapes is studied. Colloids are driven with a piezo-stage, manipulated with optical tweezers and magnetic fields and imaged using optical microscopy. First, the meta-stable horizontal and...
