Two dimensional interferometric trapping of multiple microspheres and Escherichia coli has been demonstrated using a multicore fiber lensed with an electric arc fusion splicer. Light was coupled evenly into all four cores using a diffractive optical element. The visibility of the fringes and also the appearance of the lattice can be altered by rotating a half wave-plate. As a result the particles can be manipulated from one dimensional trapping to two dimensional trapping or a variety of different two dimensional arrangements. The ability to align bacterial populations has potential application for quorum sensing, floc and biofilm and, metabolic co-operation studies.
