Optical Manipulation of nanoparticles by simultaneous electric and magnetic field enhancement within diabolo nanoantenna.

In this paper, we propose and numerically simulate a novel optical trapping process based on the enhancement and the confinement of both magnetic and electric near-fields by using gold Diabolo Antenna (DA). The later was recently proposed to generate huge magnetic near-field when illuminated by linearly polarized wave along its axis. Numerical 3D - FDTD simulation results demonstrate the high confinement of the electromagnetic field in the vicinity of the DA.
