Nonlinear accelerated orbiting motions of optical trapped particles through two-photon absorption

Vortex beams carrying optical angular momentum (AM) could drive the orbital motion of a small particle around the optical axis. In general, the orbital rotation speed of trapped particles increases linearly with the increasing laser power. Beyond the linear optics regime, in this work, we investigate both the optical force and torque on a two-photon absorbing Rayleigh particle produced by the tightly focused femtosecond-pulsed circularly polarized vortex beam. Different from the trapping dynamics of particles without two-photon absorption (TPA), it is shown that the orbital motion of trapped particles with TPA accelerates nonlinearly as the laser power increases. Moreover, the orbital motion acceleration of trapped particles is proportional to the TPA coefficient. The corresponding underlying mechanism is discussed in detail. Our results may find interesting applications in the characterization of the optical nonlinearity of a single nanoparticle, and AM manipulation and particle transportation in the nonlinear optics regime.
