Upper bound to optical forces through the multipolar control of optical beams

Enrique Ayllón-García, Iker Gómez-Viloria, Quimey Pears Stefano +6

Optical tweezers enable the manipulation of microscopic objects using light, yet the fundamental limits to the optical forces that can be exerted on matter remain unknown. Here we…

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…
