Description
Push our optical trap toward a full 3D view of Brownian motion. Having proven we can track x(t) and y(t) under white light, cross-calibrated with our ultra-fast photodiode x(t) channel, join us to add a fast y(t) channel and a brand-new z(t) axis, the first steps toward a PhD probing particles near walls.
