Abstract
In this study, microscopic particles such as aerosols were counted by Laser-Two-Focus method, L2F, after being trapped and guided by an optical tube. This prevents particles diffusivity as they pass through the Gaussian beam in the L2F method by optical forces such as radiation pressure and photophoretic forces. In optical tube, particles can guid to the center of the beam where the intensity gets zero. A single-charged Bessel Gaussian beam, BG01, is used as the particle guidance beam in this method, which is generated by passing the first-order Laguerre-Gaussian beam, LG01, from an axicon lens. LG01 beam are also produced by using holographic interference grid mask. The results of the theory and simulations showed that by optical guiding of particles in the L2F-method measurement, their transverse turbulence can be reduced by about 60% and then the probability of measuring all particles to be increased by about 30%. Measurements of in-laboratory aerosols less than 3.5 μm with this method showed a 20% increase in their condensation of them compared to the conventional L2F method.
