Sub-Diffraction Photon Trapping: The Possible Optical Energy Eigenstates within a Tiny Circular Aperture with a Finite Depth

Sub-Diffraction Photon Trapping: The Possible Optical Energy Eigenstates within a Tiny Circular Aperture with a Finite Depth

One of the challenging riddles that is set by light is: do photons have wavefunctions like other elementary particles do? Wave–particle duality has been a prevailing fact since the beginning of quantum theory thought; in electromagnetism, light is already a kind of undulation, so what about the wave...
