A magnetic monopole nanoantenna
Benoît Reynier, Xingyu Yang, Bruno Gallas +2
Magnetic monopoles are hypothetical particles that, like electric monopoles which generate electric fields, are at the origin of magnetic fields. Despite many efforts, to date, the…
An achiral magnetic photonic antenna as a tunable nanosource of superchiral light
Lingfei Cui, Xingyu Yang, Benoît Reynier +4
Sensitivity to molecular chirality is crucial for many fields, from biology and chemistry to the pharmaceutical industry. By generating superchiral light, nanophotonics has brought…
Full control of electric and magnetic light-matter interactions through a plasmonic nanomirror on a near-field tip
Benoît Reynier, Eric Charron, Obren Markovic +5
Light-matter interactions are often considered governed by the electric optical field only, leaving aside the magnetic component of light. However, the magnetic part plays a determ…
An inverse Faraday effect through linear polarized light
Xingyu Yang, Ye Mou, Homero Zapata +3
The inverse Faraday effect (IFE) allows the generation of magnetic fields by optical excitation only. Since its discovery in the 60s, it was believed that only an elliptical or cir…
