SUMMARY:ICFO | BASUDEV ROY
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:A rigid body can have 6 degrees of freedom\, namely the three t
 ranslational degrees of freedom and the three rotational degrees of freedo
 m. Of these\, the translational degrees have been well explored in optical
  tweezers community. However\, only the in-plane rotational degree of free
 dom has been explored. We call this in-plane degree of rotational freedom\
 , the yaw motion in the nomenclature of the airlines. The pitch and roll d
 egrees are only beginning to be explored recently.\nIn this talk\, I will 
 show you 4 ways of generating pitch rotation using the optical tweezers. I
  will also show you one way of detection of pitch rotation at high resolut
 ion using birefringent particles. I will also show a few ways of generatin
 g controlled roll motion. Further\, I will discuss some applications of th
 is pitch rotation in cell biology and soft matter systems like the study o
 f the properties of the cell membrane and rheology of the cell interior.
