Optical pulling force on nonlinear nanoparticles with gain

We investigate the optical force on the nonlinear nanoparticles with gain based on nonlinear Mie theory and Maxwell’s stress tensor method. For the nonlinear susceptibility χ(3) = 0 (i.e., the linear nanoparticle), the threshold gain to obtain the optical pulling force increases when the permittivit...
