We have shown theoretically and experimentally that a local drive causes long range steady state density profiles in the sedimentated uniform layer of colloid particles. The theoretical calculations performed
in [1] for a two dimensional particle lattice have been adapted to a layer of colloidal particles locally driven by scanning optical tweezers. It was shown that the localized drive should induce long range density
profiles in the layer. Long range density profiles have been experimentally induced in a sedimentated layer
of silica particles by applying certain scanning sequence to the optical trap. The obtained experimental
results are in good agreement with theoeretical predictions.
