The course is aimed to give an introduction to the concept of how it is possible to manipulate matter with light. We will cover optical tweezers (2018 Nobel prize in Physics), go deeper into the fundamentals of optical forces and torque from the classical and quantum perspectives (e.g. lecture about the LIGO project). Lastly, we will go through the cavity optomechanics and see how it is possible to realize an interplay between phonons and photons. Each topic is supported by unique interesting problems. After this course, each student will gain a nice perspective of the physics behind each effect and will be able to read and analyze related papers about novel discoveries in the field.
