We present evidence of optical trapping of solid polymer films by a tightly focused near-infrared (NIR) laser beam (785 nm) when the polymer is softened by green laser (532 nm) irradiation, which is uniformly distributed over the film surface. While the whole film is softened by the green laser, only the part which is subjected to the NIR laser is trapped. The film, which is transparent in the NIR range and strongly absorbs the visible light, is deposited on a glass substrate. The NIR laser is focused at the sample plane and attracts the polymer to the laser focus, by the optical gradient force, during the green light irradiation, indicating that molecular mobility is strongly reduced and the optical gradient force of the NIR laser is inefficient in moving the polymer below the glass-transition temperature of the polymer without photosoftening. The observations are consistent with the theory of photochemical tweezing, which rests on the assumption that photosensitive polymers, containing azo dyes, are softened, i.e., molecular mobility is enhanced, by photoisomerization of the azo dyes during green light irradiation, and are moved in gradients of light fields. We also found that this two-color laser tweezing scheme is sensitive to light polarization, owing to the polarization sensitivity of the azo dye chromophores.
