By using the intense optical vortices gener- ated within the PANDA ring resonator, the required molecules can be trapped and moved (transported) dynamically within the wavelength router and bus networks, in which the required drug delivery can perform within the wavelength router before reach- ing the required destination. PANDA ring is a modi- fied optical add/drop filter. It is a name of Chinese bear, which is used to name the device by the authors. The advantage of the proposed system is that the drug delivery networks can perform within the tiny system (thin film device), where the large molecular drug networks such as ring, star and bus networks are also proposed, in which the applications such as Alzheimers’ and Parkinson diagnosis, blood circula- tion networks and in situ surgery operation are dis- cussed.

INTRODUCTION Since over 20 years ago, optical traps have emerged as a powerful tool with broad-reaching applications in biol- ogy and physics. Optical tweezers have been applied widely in many research areas such as biology, medicine, engineering and physics [1]. Optical trapping techniques provide unique means to manipulate biological particles, biological cells such as virus, living cells and subcellular organelles, without nondestructive manipulating mole- cules, since this technique was the first invented by Ash- kin et al. [2] and his colleagues used it to trap viruses and bacteria, although the bacteria were killed by the high energy of the laser. With the application of a less dam- aging infrared (IR) laser, it is now possible to trap and manipulate a single yeast, bacterium and organelle with- out damage [3]. In specific to medicine and the applica- tion of nanotechnology, which is the field of interest, obviously experiment of a single red blood cell (RBC) deformability test is performed by using optical trapping plastic in microfluidic chip was clearly demonstrated ex- periment by Lee et al. [4,5] and lab-on-a-chip for RBCs transportation in the capillary network to circulate oxy- gen and carbon dioxide throughout the human body [6]. For the optical trapping manipulation molecules in liquid core wave guide and application to drug delivery has reported by Suwanpayak et al. [7] in a PANDA ring resonator is used to form, transmit and receive the mi- croscopic volume (drug) by controlling the ring parame- ters. The microscopic volume can be trapped and moved (transported) dynamically within the wavelength router or network. Optical buffer is recognized as an essential component in a wavelength router, in which the packets of data can be storaged for resolving packet contention problem and also delay the outgoing packets [8,9]. In practice, the optical router patents have been proposed and recorded [10-12], which can be useful for various applications. Recently, the promising techniques of microscopic vol- ume trapping and transportation within the add/drop multiplexer have been reported in both theory [13] and experiment [14], respectively, in which the transporter is known as an optical tweezer. Here, the optical tweezer generation technique has become a powerful tool for manipulation of micrometer-sized particles. To date, the useful static tweezers are well recognized and realized. Moreover, the use of dynamic tweezers is now also real- ized in practical works [15-17]. Schulz et al. [18] have shown that the transfer of trapped atoms between two optical potentials could be performed. In principle, an OPEN ACCESS

Biomedical Science and Engineering 5 (2012) 360-368 361 optical tweezers use forces exerted by intensity gradients in the strongly focused beams of light to trap and move the microscopic volumes of matters, in which the other combination of force is induced by the interaction be- tween photons, which is caused by the photon scattering effects. In application, the field intensity can be adjusted and tuned, in which the desired gradient field and scat- tering force can form the suitable trapping force. Hence, the appropriated force can be configured for the trans- mitter/receiver part, which can perform the long distance microscopic transportation. In this paper, the dynamic optical tweezers/vortices are generated using a dark soliton, bright soliton and Gaus- sian pulse propagating within an add/drop optical multi- plexer incorporating two nanoring resonators (PANDA ring resonator). The dynamic behaviors of solitons and Gaussian pulses are well described in reference [19]. By using the proposed system, the transceiver can be inte- grated and performed by using a single device. Here, the use of the molecular buffers and bus networks to form the drug volume transportation, especially, for large drug volumes delivery and transportation, which can be available for molecular diagnosis and networks, blood circulation networks, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diag- nosis. 2. PRINCIPLES AND METHODS In operation, the trapping forces are exerted by the inten- sity gradients in the strongly focused beams of light to trap and move the microscopic volumes of matters, in which the optical forces are customarily defined by the relationship [18] m Qn P Fc (1) where Q is a dimensionless efficiency, nm is the index of refraction of the suspending medium, c is the speed of light, and P is the incident laser power, measured at the specimen. Q represents the fraction of power utilized to exert force. For plane waves incident on a perfectly ab- sorbing particle, Q is equal to 1. To achieve stable trap- ping, the radiation pressure must create a stable, three- dimensional equilibrium. Because biological specimens are usually contained in aqueous medium, the depend- ence of F on nm can rarely be exploited to achieve higher trapping forces. Increasing the laser power is possible, but only over a limited range due to the possibility of optical damage. Q itself is therefore the main determi- nant of trapping force. It depends upon the NA (numeri- cal aperture), laser wavelength, light polarization state, laser mode structure, relative index of refraction, and geometry of the particle. Furthermore, in the Rayleigh regime, trapping forces decompose naturally into two components. Since, in this limit, the electromagnetic field is uniform across the di- electric, particles can be treated as induced point dipoles. The scattering force is given by scatt , m S Fn c (2) where 2 2 42 2 8 π 32 m kr rm 1 (3) is the scattering cross section of a Rayleigh sphere with radius r. S is the time averaged Poynting vector, n is the index of refraction of the particle, m mnn is the rela- tive index, and 2πm kn is the wave number of the light. Scattering force is proportional to the energy flux and points along the direction of propagation of the inci- dent light. The gradient field (Fgrad) is the Lorentz force acting on the dipole induced by the light field. It is given by 2 grad , 2 E (4) where 2 23 2 1 2 mm nr m (5) is the polarizability of the particle. The gradient force is proportional and parallel to the gradient in energy den- sity (for m > 1). The large gradient force is formed by the large depth of the laser beam, in which the stable trap- ping requires that the gradient force in the direction, which is against the direction of incident light (dark soli- ton valley), and it is greater than the scattering force. By increasing the NA, when the focal spot size is decreased, the gradient strength is increased [19,20], which can be formed within the tiny system, for instance, nanoscale device (nanoring resonator). ˆ z In our proposal, the trapping force is formed by using a dark soliton, in which the valley of the dark soliton is generated and controlled within the PANDA ring reso- nator by the control port signals.

Molecular buffer is a device that can be used to store or delay atoms/molecules for a period of time (see Figure 2), where light intensity and velocity can also be con- trolled, which was described by the authors in references [21,22], which is available for medical application. Mo- lecular buffer is the new device, which is operated in the same way as gases buffer [23]. The polarizibility of the particle is calculated by using an Eq.5, in this case, we assume that the sphere particle is polystyrene (n = 1.5894) and the liquid medium is water (n = 1.33), and the optical power which is required to trap particles of a certain size/polarizibility is 9.1 W, which is the slope as shown in Figure 3(a). In simulation, the bright soliton with cen- ter wavelength at 1.50 µm, peak power 2 W, pulse 35 fs is input into the system via the input port, the coupling coefficients are given as 0 = 0.5, 1 = 0.35, 2 = 0.1 and 3 = 0.35, respectively. The ring radii are Radd = 100 µm, R Here Et and Ed represent the optical fields of the through port and drop ports, respectively. = kneff is the propagation constant, neff is the effective refractive index of the waveguide, and the circumference of the ring is L = 2R, where R is the radius of the ring. 1 and 2 are the coupling coefficients of the add/drop filters, kn = 2/ is the wave propagation number for in a vacuum, and the waveguide (ring resonator) loss is = 0.5 dB·mm−1. The fractional coupler intensity loss is = 0.1. In the case of the add/drop device, the nonlinear refractive index is not effect to the system, therefore, it is neglected. The elec- tric fields 0 and 0 E E are the field circulated within the nanoring at the right and left side of add/drop optical filter. R = RL = 40 µm, respectively. To date, the evidence of the practical device with the radius of 2 - 3 µm has been reported by the authors in reference [24]. Aeff are 0.50, 0.25 and 0.25 m2: In this case, the dynamic tweezers (gradient fields) can be in the forms of bright solitons, Gaussian pulses and dark solitons, which can be used to 2 22 22 121201 002 2222 2 22 00 11 11 1 nn n LL LL jk jk iLi ti LL jk L EEeXEE Ee EE YE Ee , (8)

There are four dif- ferent center wavelengths of tweezers generated, where the dynamical movements are seen in Figure 4, where (a) different sizes and wavelengths tweezers, (b) tunable tweezers by coupling constant variation, where the re- quired drug volumes can be obtained by the drop port outputs. In practice, the fabrication parameters which can be easily controlled are the ring resonator radii instead of coupling constants. The important aspect of the result is that the tunable tweezers can be obtained by tuning (con- trolling) the add (control) port input signal, in which the required number of microscopic volume (atom/photon/ molecule) can be obtained and seen at the drop/through ports, otherwise, they propagate within a PANDA ring before collapsing/decaying into the waveguide. In appli- cation, the trapped drug molecules can transport into the wavelength router via the through port, while the re- trieved drug volumes are received via the drop port (con- necting target). The advantage of the proposed system is that the transmitter and receiver can be fabricated on- chip and alternatively operated by a single device. The magnitude of optical trapping force is the pico Newton (pN), which depends upon the relative refractive index of particle, which was given by the authors in reference [25]. The particle radius was given by the authors in ref- erences [26-28], which is located in the cavity. It de- creases with the decreasing in refractive indices com- pared to the host medium. The waveguide of the drug delivery system can be an optical waveguide with liquid core which is allowed to trap drug molecules smoothly within the network. By using the drug bus network, the trapped drug molecules can be transported to the required drug targets and deliv- ery, in which the specific drug molecules can be obtained by using the molecular transceiver. To form the trapping tools, the PANDA ring resonator has 4 ports as shown in Figure 1. Firstly, the dark-soliton is fed into the system via the input port. Secondly, output trapping tools trans- mit into the throughput port and bus networks. Thirdly, the required drug molecules are filtered and obtained via the drop ports. Finally, there are some molecules trans- port within the bus networks and drug routers, in which the control port is available for additional applications. In Figure 5, the molecular trapping probe can be adjusted to fit the drug molecule size from 10 nm to 15 nm, which can be used for drug molecul transportation at the through port and networks. The number of molecules can be increased within the PANDA ring resonator as shown in Figure 5(a). In addition, the trapping tool (probe) or dynamic well size can be adjusted by varying the cou- pling coefficient of PANDA microring as shown in Fig- ure 5(b), where the other parameters are given in the figure captions. 4. DISCUSSION Several works have shown that the use of fluidics parti- cles (drug volumes) can perform the realistic applications [29-31]. In this paper, the proposed system has shown that a tiny device in the form of thin film can be fabri- cated and used [32], in which the integrated system of drug network can be inserted into the application area, where the feasibility applications such as drug delivery Copyright © 2012 SciRes.

Moreover, the use of such a system for artificial bone and blood circulation network is also available, in which the use for in situ surgery or opera- tion, neural and brain diagnosis is plausible. By using the design networks, the required trapped volumes can be transported within the network via the molecular buffer (storage) into the required destinations, for instance, the trapped tangle protein can be filtered via the add/drop filter before reaching the desired destina- tions.

CONCLUSIONS We have proposed the interesting system that can be used form the molecular networks to trap (delay) and transport molecules into the liquid core waveguide and networks by using the optical tweezers, which can be used to form the drug storage and delivery system. Such a system can be available for molecular drug targeting and diagnosis. By utilizing the reasonable dark soliton input power, the dynamic tweezers can be controlled and stored (delayed) within the system before reaching the final destination. In conclusion, we have shown that the use of a mo- lecular networks to form the long distance drug molecule transportation being realized by using the proposed sys- tem, in which the drug delivery or molecular communi- cation can be performed via the wavelength router to the required (connecting) targets, which can be available for large network system (neural system) in the near future.
