Light-induced torque at multipolar plasmon resonance
… a subwavelength plasmonic resonator. We perform Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulation and show that the discrete rotational symmetry of the resonator determines the possible output modes in angular momentum conversion at non-dipolar plasmon resonance. Next, we analyze the efficiency of …
