Abstract The active Brownian motion of single dust particles in a three-dimensional DC discharge trap under the action of laser radiation is experimentally studied. Spherical particles of melamine formaldehyde (MF), part of the surface of which had a copper coating (Janus particle) are used in the experiment. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional analysis methods for root-mean-square displacements are compared. The mean kinetic energy of motion of dust particles at different laser irradiation intensities is determined. The energy balance of dust particles and the influence of their rotation on the nature of the motion are estimated.
