Mass-polariton theory of light in dispersive media
Mikko Partanen, Jukka Tulkki
We have recently shown that the electromagnetic field in a medium is made of mass-polariton (MP) quasiparticles, which are quantized coupled states of the field and an atomic mass…
Momentum and rest mass of the covariant state of light in a medium
Mikko Partanen, Jukka Tulkki
Conventionally, theories of electromagnetic waves in a medium assume that only the energy of the field propagates in a transparent medium and the medium is left undisturbed. Conseq…
Photon momentum and optical forces in cavities
Mikko Partanen, Teppo Häyrynen, Jani Oksanen +1
During the past century, the electromagnetic field momentum in material media has been under debate in the Abraham-Minkowski controversy as convincing arguments have been advanced…
Quantized fluctuational electrodynamics for three-dimensional plasmonic structures
Mikko Partanen, Teppo Häyrynen, Jukka Tulkki +1
We recently introduced a quantized fluctuational electrodynamics (QFED) formalism that provides a physically insightful definition of an effective position-dependent photon-number…
