Electric-Magnetic Geometric Phase

Alex J. Vernon, Konstantin Y. Bliokh

Geometric phases play an enormous role in optics and are generally associated with the evolution of light's polarization state on the Poincaré sphere, or its spin on the sphere of…

Time-diffracting 2D wave vortices

Boris A. Khanikati, Konstantin Y. Bliokh

Wave vortices constitute a large family of wave entities, closely related to phase singularities and orbital angular momentum (OAM). So far, two main classes of localized wave vort…

Bulk-to-surface coupling of spatiotemporal vortices

Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño, Michela F. Picardi, Konstantin Y. Bliokh

We consider the coupling of bulk space-time-structured waves, such as spatiotemporal vortex pulses (STVPs), to surface waves, such as surface plasmon-polaritons (SPPs). For resonan…

Rectification and bolometric terahertz radiation detectors based on perforated graphene structures exhibiting plasmonic resonant response

V. Ryzhii, C. Tang, M. Ryzhii +2

We propose and evaluate the characteristics of the terahertz (THz) detectors based on perforated graphene layers (PGLs). The PGL structures constitute the interdigital in-plane arr…

Momentum, spin, and orbital angular momentum of electromagnetic, acoustic, and water waves

Konstantin Y. Bliokh

Waves of various types carry momentum, which is associated with their propagation direction, i.e., the phase gradient. The circulation of the wave momentum density gives rise to or…

Long-range molecular energy transfer mediated by strong coupling to plasmonic topological edge states

Álvaro Buendía, Jose A. Sánchez-Gil, Vincenzo Giannini +2

Strong coupling between light and molecular matter is currently attracting interest both in chemistry and physics, in the fast-growing field of molecular polaritonics. The large ne…

Canonical and Poynting currents in propagation and diffraction of structured light: tutorial

Bohnishikha Ghosh, Anat Daniel, Bernard Gorzkowski +3

Local propagation and energy flux in structured optical fields is often associated with the Poynting vector. However, the local phase gradient (i.e., local wavevector) in monochrom…

Inverse design for Casimir-Lifshitz force near heterogeneous gapped metal surface

M. Boström, S. Pal, H. R. Gopidi +4

The Casimir-Lifshitz force is calculated between a heterogeneous gapped metal surface and a silica sphere attached to an AFM cantilever tip. We demonstrate that heterogeneous surfa…

Acoustic Lateral Recoil Force and Stable Lift of Anisotropic Particles

Mikhail Smagin, Ivan Toftul, Konstantin Y. Bliokh +1

Acoustic forces and torques are of immense importance for manipulation of particles, in particular in biomedical applications. While such forces and torques are well understood for…
