Dynamics of composite beads in optical tweezers and their application to study of HIV cell entry
In this thesis, we report a novel symmetry breaking system in single-beam optical trap. The breaking of symmetry is observed in Brownian dynamics of a linked pair of beads with substantially differing radii (500nm and 100nm). Such composite beads were originally conceived as a manipulation means to...
