Abstract
In biological scientific research, separating biological macromolecules or cells in liquid is always a challenging job. Optical tweezers have been a valuable research tool since their invention in the 1980s. As the development trend of the laser manipulation, two-dimensional optical tweezers array is one of the most important developments in optical tweezers. The developments of optical tweezers arrays are discussed. Their applications in biological scientific research and further developments are also analyzed.
