Abstract
Time multiplexing an electromagnetic trap beam may be used to generate trap shapes/geometries to trap one or more particles with one electromagnetic beam by directing the electromagnetic beam at a pattern of different locations with sufficient rapidity to form an effective shape/geometry. Additionally, multiplexing an electromagnetic trap beam may be used to shutter trapping electromagnetic radiation to protect a viewer, use the same beam for multiple functions, move and organize particles, and generate illumination effects.
