Design of an Optical Trapping Device Based on an Ultra-High Q/V Resonant Structure

A novel photonic/plasmonic cavity based on a 1-D photonic crystal cavity vertically coupled to a plasmonic gold structure is reported. The design has been optimized to achieve an ultra-high Q/V ratio, therefore improving the light-matter interaction and making the device suitable for optical trappin...
