Optical trapping and manipulation of nanowires using multi-hotspot dielectric nanononamers

Semiconductor nanowires have demonstrated great potential in all-photonic integrated circuit applications. However, the development of a controllable multidimensional nanowire assembly technique is still arguably its infancy. Here, we numerically demonstrate optical trapping and manipulation cylindrical zinc oxide using an all-dielectric silicon nanononamer for designing programmable nanolasers. The composed nine identical nanocylinders arranged square grid on top glass substrate. This suitable choice, as with proposed envisioned effective contactless suspended multiple hotspots negligible heating generation. We determine forces torques applied to Maxwell stress tensor method. investigate influence light polarization field confining laser tweezing properties. For this work, simple nanowire-based photonic platform compatible complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor technology, which allows low-cost fabrication such structures integration other on-chip components.
