A general no-go theorem for loss-free optical torque, and its enantiomer-differential escape route
Juanjuan Ren, Reuven Gordon, Stephen Hughes
We show that an isotropic, lossless dipolar particle, locally embedded in a homogeneous, lossless host, cannot experience axial optical torque under any illumination, in any photon…
Roadmap for Optical Tweezers
Giovanni Volpe, Onofrio M. Maragò, Halina Rubinzstein-Dunlop +80
Optical tweezers are tools made of light that enable contactless pushing, trapping, and manipulation of objects ranging from atoms to space light sails. Since the pioneering work b…
Matters Arising: Modeling and observation of mid-infrared nonlocality in effective epsilon-near-zero ultranarrow coaxial apertures
Reuven Gordon, Ali Khademi, Ghazal Hajisalem
In "Modeling and observation of mid-infrared nonlocality in effective epsilon-near-zero ultranarrow coaxial apertures" the authors perform infrared transmission measurements on coa…

Raman Spectroscopy of Single Nanoparticles in a Double-Nanohole Optical Tweezer System
Steven Jones, Ahmed A. Al Balushi, Reuven Gordon
A double nanohole in a metal film was used to trap nanoparticles (20 nm diameter) and simultaneously record their Raman spectrum using the trapping laser as the excitation source.…
Comment on "Finite Conductance Governs the Resonance Transmission of Thin Metal Slits at Microwave Frequencies"
Shuwen Chen, Reuven Gordon
We provides quantitative agreement with the experiment of Ref [J.R.Sucking et al,Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 147401 (2004)], and can account for the effects of the finite conductivity wit…
Limits for superfocusing with finite evanescent wave amplification
Reuven Gordon
Perfect lensing using negative refractive index materials and radiationless electromagnetic interference both provide extreme subwavelength focusing by "amplifying" evanescent wave…
Proposal for Optical Super-Focusing with a Metal-Dielectric Waveguide Array
Reuven Gordon
In this paper, super-focusing using radiationless electromagnetic interference is extended to the visible regime. It is shown that the highest-order mode of a specifically designed…
Plasmonic Bragg Reflectors for Subwavelength Hole Arrays in a Metal Film
Pramodha Marthandam, Reuven Gordon
We present plasmonic Bragg reflectors for increasing the extraordinary optical transmission through periodic arrays of subwavelength apertures in a metal film. The increase in tran…
