Reply to "Comment on 'Theoretical analysis of the force on the end face of a nano-filament exerted by an outgoing light pulse'"

Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian

We respond to a Comment on our paper [Physical Review A 80, 023823 (2009)], which appears to have stemmed from a misunderstanding of the various energy-momentum tensors of classica…

Radiation pressure and the distribution of electromagnetic force in dielectric media (II)

Armis R. Zakharian, Masud Mansuripur, Jerome V. Moloney

Using the Finite-Difference-Time-Domain (FDTD) method, we compute the electromagnetic field distribution in and around dielectric media of various shapes and optical properties. Wi…

Radiation pressure on a dielectric wedge

Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian, Jerome V. Moloney

The force of electromagnetic radiation on a dielectric medium may be derived by a direct application of the Lorentz law of classical electrodynamics. While the light's electric fie…

Radiation Pressure and Photon Momentum in Negative-Index Media

Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian

Radiation pressure and photon momentum in negative-index media are no different than their counterparts in ordinary (positive-index) materials. This is because the parameters respo…

Electromagnetic force distribution inside matter

Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian, Ewan M. Wright

Using the Finite Difference Time Domain method, we solve Maxwell's equations numerically and compute the distribution of electromagnetic fields and forces inside material media. Th…

What is wrong with the interpretation of recent nano-filament experiments?

Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian

In a recent paper, W. She, J. Yu and R. Feng reported the slight deformations observed upon transmission of a light pulse through a short length of a silica glass nano-filament. Re…
