  • Title: Optical recoil of asymmetric nano-optical antenna.
    Author: Song JH, Shin J, Lim HJ, Lee YH.
    Journal: Opt Express; 2011 Aug 01; 19(16):14929-36. PubMed ID: 21934854.
    Abstract:
    We propose nano-optical antennas with asymmetric radiation patterns as light-driven mechanical recoil force generators. Directional antennas are found to generate recoil force efficiently when driven in the spectral proximity of their resonances. It is also shown that the recoil force is equivalent to the Poynting vector integrated over a closed sphere containing the antenna structures.
