Biotin, also known as vitamin H or B7 and
C10H16N2O3S (Biotin Coenzyme R, Biopeiderm), is
a water-soluble B-complex vitamin which is
composed of an ureido ring fused with a
tetrahydrothiophene ring. A valeric acid
substituent is attached to one of the carbon
atoms of the tetrahydrothiophene ring. Biotin is
important in the catalysis of essential
metabolic reactions to synthesize fatty acids,
in gluconeogenesis, and to metabolize leucine.
It is commonly found in pyruvate dehydrogenase
as a carrier of HCO3-.

  • How the nonlinear generation of optical waves
    with different frequencies changes the radiation
    force exerted to a nonlinear trapped
    microparticle?
  • Two main mechanisms
  • Optical waves with new frequencies produce also
  • the radiation forces.
  • 2. The nonlinear Kerr effect changes the
    refractive index
  • of the trapped nonlinear particle, hence, the
  • radiation forces (both the gradient force and
    the
  • scattering force).

  • Calculations of the radiation forces exerted on a
    nonlinear trapped microparticle.

  • Single Gaussian beam interaction with a Kerr
    microsphere
  • characteristics of the radiation force,
  • Applied Optics, 36, 3515 (1997).
