Abstract

A countable set of linearly independent solutions of the paraxial wave (Schroedinger-type) equation is derived and given the name hyper-geometric modes. These solutions describe pure optical vortices that can be generated when a spiral phase plate is illuminated with a plane wave. The distinction between these modes and the familiar paraxial modes is that in propagation the radius of the former increases as a square root of distance and the phase velocity is the same for all modes. In the present work experimental results on trapping and rotation of 5-10 micron-sized biological objects (yeast cells) and polystyrene beads of diameter 5 μm using various laser beams are discussed.
