Diffusion of Spherical Polystyrene Particles through a Tilted Washboard Potential

Description:

This project involved the study of Brownian motion of polystyrene microspheres in the presence of gravity and a one-dimensional sinusoidal optical potential generated by the interference of two laser beams. An exponential relationship was observed between applied laser power and particle residence time of individual interference fringes. Increasing laser power...
