Investigation on trapping capability of circular swallowtail beams

Circular swallowtail beams (CSBs) with their remarkable autofocusing capability have garnered significant interests due to their potential applications in optical trapping. This study delves into a comprehensive investigation of the trapping force properties of CSBs. Through a combination of experimental observations and theoretical analysis, we systematically explore the quantitative manipulation of trapping forces by adjusting specific parameters. This detailed investigation provides insights into the trapping force performance and stability of CSBs. Furthermore, the experimental validation of particle trapping using CSBs underscores their effectiveness, emphasizing their significant potential for optical manipulation and trapping applications.
