Chiral forces in longitudinally invariant dielectric photonic waveguides
Josep Martínez-Romeu, Iago Díez, Sebastian Golat +2
Optical forces can be chiral when they exhibit opposite signs for the two enantiomeric versions of a chiral molecule or particle. Such forces could be eventually used to separate e…
A decomposition of light's spin angular momentum density
Alex J. Vernon, Sebastian Golat, Claire Rigouzzo +2
Light carries intrinsic spin angular momentum (SAM) when the electric or magnetic field vector rotates over time. A familiar vector equation calculates the direction of light's SAM…
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…
