The tool used for such operations are known as optical tweezers.
2
Like the optical tweezers, these short pulses can also be used to observe microscopic processes.

Here we use optical tweezers to track microtubule polymerization against microfabricated barriers, permitting unprecedented spatial resolution.
6
Our results may also be directly applicable to a few-fermion system prepared in microtraps and optical tweezers.

Here, by using blinking optical tweezers, we detect these inertial effects on time scales several orders longer up to a few seconds.
12
Using optical tweezers, University of Otago physicists led by Niels Kjaergaard are splitting tiny clouds of rubidium atoms and smashing them together.
13
We have developed an optical tweezers instrument that can independently handle two DNA molecules, which allows the systematic investigation of protein-mediated DNA-DNA interactions.
14
Wang uses optical tweezers to study the twisting motion of motor proteins, which are structures that move molecules and other objects around the body.
