Abstract :
We report on design and construction of a new scheme where air-born particles can be transported via an optical pipe between two optical traps over meter-long distances in air. The trapped particles could now be transferred backward and forward between the traps along the optical pipe by changing the intensity ratio between the beams forming the traps at the end of the pipeline.
