Chiral optical forces in a slot waveguide for separation of molecules in gas

Josep Martínez-Romeu, Daniel Arenas-Ortega, Iago Diez +1

Chiral optical forces present an exciting avenue into the separation of enantiomers in an all-optical fashion. In this work, we explore via numerical simulations and analytical cal…

Longitudinal chiral forces in photonic integrated waveguides to separate particles with realistically small chirality

Josep Martínez-Romeu, Iago Diez, Sebastian Golat +2

Chiral optical forces exhibit opposite signs for the two enantiomeric versions of a chiral molecule or particle. If large enough, these forces might be able to separate enantiomers…

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…

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…

Inverse Design of Whispering-gallery Nanolasers with Tailored Beam Shape and Polarization

Iago Diez, Andrey Krysa, Isaac J. Luxmoore

Control over the shape and polarization of the beam emitted by a laser source is important in applications such as optical communications, optical manipulation and high-resolution…
