The theory of formation of microspheres concentration structures in a suspension under the action of gradient forces in the field of counter-propagating laser beams is developed. The possibility of the microsphere pattern generation in suspensions with a mirror feedback is shown in diffusion limit on the basis of simultaneous solving of Planck-Nernst equation for the microsphere concentration and wave equations.
Key words: suspension of transparent microspheres, pattern generation, gradient forces
