Radiation Force Exerted on Subwavelength Particles near a Nanoaperture
Abstract
We report the first numerical analysis of the radiation force exerted on a subwavelength particle by an evanescent field localized near a subwavelength aperture. The radiation force is calculated by using the Maxwell stress tensor through the electric field distribution obtained with the finite-difference time-domain method. The result indicates that a particle moves towards the aperture. We found that if two particles exist the first particle is trapped and the second one is also attracted to the first one. The radiation force is found to be larger than the forces due to thermal fluctuations and to gravity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
