As water is normally used as the immersion medium in optically trapped microsphere microscopy, the high-refractive-index barium titanate glass (BTG) microsphere shows a better imaging performance than the low-index polystyrene (PS) or melamine formaldehyde (MF) microsphere, but it is difficult to be trapped by single-beam optical trapping due to its overly high refractive index. In this study, coated BTG microspheres with a PS coating have been computationally explored for the combination of optical trapping with microsphere-assisted microscopy. The PS coating thickness affects both the optical trapping efficiency and photonic nanojet (PNJ) property of the coated BTG sphere. Compared to the uncoated BTG sphere, the coated BTG sphere with a proper PS coating thickness has a highly improved trapping efficiency which enables single-beam optical trapping, and a better PNJ with a higher optical intensity Imax and a narrower full width at half maximum (FWHM) corresponding to better imaging performance. These coated BTG spheres also have an advantage in trapping efficiency and imaging performance over conventional PS and MF spheres. The coated BTG microsphere is highly desirable for optically trapped microsphere super-resolution microscopy and potentially beneficial to other research areas, such as nanoparticle detection.
