Axially resolved microphotoluminescence mapping of semiconductor
nanowires held in an optical tweezers reveals important new experimental
information regarding equilibrium trapping points and trapping stability
of high aspect ratio nanostructures. In this study, holographic optical
tweezers are used to scan trapped InP nanowires along the beam direction
with respect to a fixed excitation source and the luminescent properties
are recorded. It is observed that nanowires with lengths on the range
of 3β15 ΞΌm are stably trapped near the tip of the wire
with the long segment positioned below the focus in an inverted trapping
configuration. Through the use of trap multiplexing we investigate
the possibility of improving the axial stability of the trapped nanowires.
Our results have important implication for applications of optically
assisted nanowire assembly and optical tweezers based scanning probes
