In this paper, we show how one can change the stable equilibrium of a particle trapped into an optical tweezer by varying the intensity of superposed Bessel beams with different orders. The gradient forces acting on particles of different…

Bessel beams' great importance in optics lies in that these propagate without spreading and can reconstruct themselves behind an obstruction placed across their path. However, a rigorous wave-optics explanation of the latter property is…
