When we think of infrared used for promoting human wellness, as in the case of saunas and bioceramic textiles, the different wavelengths of infrared (near, mid, and far infrared) have different effects on the body because of the difference in how deeply they are able to penetrate the skin and tissues.

Abstract: Featured ApplicationThe proposed integrated hybrid tweezer can capture micron-sized particles and control their movements. It can be used as the fixed center for yeasts and other small biological objects in chip laboratories within the fields of biology and medicine, including applications in drinking water technology and drug delivery. AbstractWe propose an on-chip integrated hybrid tweezer that can simultaneously apply optical and acoustic forces on particles to control their motions. Multiple potential wells can be formed to trap particles, and the acoustic force generated by an interdigital transducer can balance the optical force induced by an optical waveguide. For example, by driving the waveguide with an optical power of 100 mW and the interdigital transducer with a voltage of 1.466 V, the particle with a refractive index of 1.4 and a diameter of 5 μm (similar to yeast cells) can be stably trapped on the waveguide surface, and its trapping position is controllable by changing the optical power or voltage. Keywords: optical force; acoustic force; microparticles; particle trapping; trapping dynamics
