Pushing nanoparticles with light — A femtonewton resolved measurement of optical scattering forces
Optomechanical manipulation of plasmonic nanoparticles is an area of current interest, both fundamental and applied. However, no experimental method is available to determine the forward-directed scattering force that dominates for incident light of a wavelength close to the plasmon resonance. Here,...
