Hybrid nanophotonic tweezers for nanoscale particle manipulation

Designed a hybrid nanophotonic nanotweezer platform using anapole-enhanced dielectric nanoantennas and diffusiophoretic forces. The system enables stable, low-power trapping and manipulation of nanoparticles and extracellular vesicles beyond the limits of conventional optical tweezers. This work highlights hands-on experience in nanophotonic device design, electromagnetic simulation, nanofabrication, optical alignment, and label-free imaging for nanoscale biological systems.
