Abstract

I will present an overview of recent experiments conducted at the optical tweezers (OT) group at UFRJ, including the demonstration of a negative optical torque, axial position detection and the measurement of a fN attractive Casimir force signal in the distance range from 200 to 500 nm. I will also discuss proposals of enantioselective optical manipulation and characterization of chiral materials which are based on a theoretical model for the optical force and torque in presence of chirality.
