Abstract
Propagations of Gaussian Schell-model (GSM) vortex beams through a focusing optical system are formulated. The radiation force acting on Rayleigh dielectric sphere with different refractive indices produced by focused GSM vortex beams is investigated theoretically. Numerical results demonstrate that the focused GSM non-vortex beam can not trap the low index of refraction particles, but can capture the high index of refraction particles. The focused GSM vortex beam can be used to trap high index of refraction particles to a bright ring of the focal plane, and simultaneously capture low index of refraction particles to z -axis. The larger the topological charge m is, the larger the value of the spatial correlation length σ 0 is, the easier it is to trap two types of particles is. Trapping stability is also analyzed.
