    We make a theoretical study about the laser-induced radiation force exerted on nano materials under a quantum mechanical resonance condition of electronic systems [1] confined in them. In our recent study, we have clarified that the remarkable effects of the electronic resonance appear in the radiation force on the small object whose size is much smaller than the light wavelength; (A) the acceleration on the object gets larger as the size decreases, (B) the peaks with less heat appear in the force spectra even under the resonance condition, (C) the peak position sensitively varies with the nanoscale-size changes. These are useful for the optical manipulation to precisely control the mechanical motions of nano materials. In this paper, toward the experiment to verify the above results, we discuss the dependence of the mechanical motion of nano objects on the width of the incident laser light, and on the diffusion and friction effects assuming that they are floating in the superfluid helium-4 with the cryogenic condition where the electronic resonance effects become conspicuous. The results of calculations show that the particular nano objects, whose resonance energy corresponds to the center frequency of incident laser, can move away from others over macroscopic distance beyond diffusion length. This means that we can observe the distribution of sizes and qualities of nano objects as a macroscopic spatial distribution of them if we prepare appropriate conditions of incident light. We call this new technique 'Nano Optical Chromatography (NOC).'
