MatLab program for precision calibration of optical tweezers

The calibration is based on the power spectrum of the Brownian motion of a dielectric bead trapped in the tweezers. Precision is achieved by a... Title of program: tweezercalib Catalogue Id: ADTV_v1_0 Nature of problem To calibrate optical tweezers with precision by fitting theory to experimental power spectrum of position of bead doing Brownian motion in incompressible fluid, possibly near microscope cover slip, while trapped in optical tweezers.

Thereby determine spring constant of optical trap and conversion factor for arbitrary-units-to-nanometers for detection system.
