Optical chiral sorting forces and their manifestation in evanescent waves and nanofibres
Sebastian Golat, Jack J. Kingsley-Smith, Iago Diez +3
Optical fields can exert forces of chiral nature on molecules and nanoparticles, which would prove extremely valuable in the separation of enantiomers with pharmaceutical applicati…
Efficient post-processing of electromagnetic plane wave simulations to model arbitrary structured beams incident on axisymmetric structures
Jack J. Kingsley-Smith, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño
The study of an optical beam interacting with material structures is a fundamental of nanophotonics. Computational electromagnetic solvers facilitate the rapid calculation of the s…
Structured transverse orbital angular momentum probed by a levitated optomechanical sensor
Yanhui Hu, Jack J. Kingsley-Smith, Maryam Nikkhou +4
The momentum carried by structured light fields exhibits a rich array of surprising features. In this work, we generate transverse orbital angular momentum (TOAM) in the interferen…
Non-Diffractive 3D Polarisation Features of Optical Vortex Beams
Andrei Afanasev, Jack J. Kingsley-Smith, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño +1
Vector optical vortices exhibit complex polarisation patterns due to the interplay between spin and orbital angular momenta. Here we demonstrate, both analytically and with simulat…
Optical magnetic dipole levitation using a plasmonic surface
Jack J. Kingsley-Smith, Michela F. Picardi, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño
Optically-induced magnetic resonances in non-magnetic media have unlocked magnetic light-matter interactions and led to new technologies in many research fields. Previous proposals…
Optical forces from near-field directionalities in planar structures
Jack J. Kingsley-Smith, Michela F. Picardi, Lei Wei +2
Matter manipulation with optical forces has become commonplace in a wide range of research fields and is epitomized by the optical trap. Calculations of optical forces on small ill…
Directional scattering from particles under evanescent wave illumination: the role of reactive power
Lei Wei, Michela F. Picardi, Jack J. Kingsley-Smith +2
Study of photonic spin-orbital interactions, which involves control of the propagation and spatial distributions of light with the polarization of electromagnetic fields, is not on…
