Wave chirality reversal without passing achirality
M. V. Berry, K. Y. Bliokh, J. M. Robbins
Chiral connectedness describes chiral structures that transform smoothly into their mirror images while never being achiral. The phenomenon is illustrated with a two-parameter fami…
Optical forces, helicity, angular momentum and how they are all intertwined
Iker Gómez-Viloria, Enrique Ayllón García, Jorge Olmos-Trigo +4
The theoretical description of optical forces and torques on micron_sized particles is a crucial area of research and has formed the foundation for advancements in optical trapping…
Detection of Hybrid Optical Anapoles in Dielectric Microspheres
Uttam Manna, Iker Gómez-Viloria, Robert Sevik +4
Nonradiating optical anapoles are special configurations of charge_current distributions that do not radiate. It was theoretically predicted that, for microspheres, electric and ma…
Characterizing the Backscattered Spectrum of Mie Spheres
Martín Molezuelas-Ferreras, Álvaro Nodar, María Barra-Burillo +10
This study describes both experimentally and theoretically an important hitherto undiscovered feature of the scattering of micron_sized spherical objects when illuminated with high…
On-Axis Optical Trapping with Vortex Beams: The Role of the Multipolar Decomposition
Iker Gómez-Viloria, Álvaro Nodar, Martín Molezuelas-Ferreras +5
Optical trapping is a well_established, decades old technology with applications in several fields of research. The most common scenario deals with particles that tend to be center…
Orbital angular momentum of spatiotemporal vortices: a ray-mechanical analogy
Sophie Vo, Konstantin Y. Bliokh, Miguel A. Alonso
Spatiotemporal vortex pulses (STVPs) are wavepackets that carry transverse orbital angular momentum (OAM), whose proper quantification has been the subject of recent debate. In thi…
