Efficient finite element modeling of radiation forces on elastic particles of arbitrary size and geometry.
A finite element based method is presented for calculating the acoustic radiation force on arbitrarily shaped elastic and fluid particles. Importantly for future applications, this development will permit the modeling of acoustic forces on complex structures such as biological cells, and the interactions between them and other bodies. The model is based on a non-viscous approximation, allowing ...
متن کاملOptical forces on small magnetodielectric particles.
We present a study of the optical force on a small particle with both electric and magnetic response, immersed in an arbitrary non-absorbing medium, due to a generic incident electromagnetic field. Expressions for the gradient force, radiation pressure and curl components are obtained for the force due to both the electric and magnetic dipoles excited in the particle. In particular, for the mag...
متن کاملOptical forces between metallic particles.
We calculate the optical attractive forces that occur between 30-nm Au or Ag nanocrystals when irradiated at visible wavelengths. These forces show resonances at dipolar plasmon wavelengths, similar to resonances in the near-field electromagnetic intensities. At MW/cm2 intensities, optical forces can be stronger than van der Waals forces and could be used to organize metallic particles. We also...
متن کاملOptical forces on small particles from partially coherent light.
We put forward a theory on the optical force exerted upon a dipolar particle by a stationary and ergodic partially coherent light field. We show through a rigorous analysis that the ensemble averaged electromagnetic force is given in terms of a partial gradient of the space-variable diagonal elements of the coherence tensor. Further, by following this result we characterize the conservative and...
متن کاملNote: Brownian motion of colloidal particles of arbitrary shape.
In general, the diffusion and mobility matrices of a particle depend on the choice of the reference center which is used to describe the rotational and translational motion. The requirement that the rotational-translational mobility matrix μ is symmetric defines uniquely the so-called center of mobility. In Ref. [1], this center was used to analyze the Brownian motion of a particle with arbitra...
