Discriminatory optical force for chiral molecules
We suggest that the force F exerted upon a chiral molecule by light assumes the form $\mathbf {F}=a\boldsymbol {\nabla } w+b\boldsymbol {\nabla } h$ under appropriate circumstances, where a and b pertain to the molecule whilst w and h are the local densities of electric energy and helicity in the op...
