Optical radiation force and torque of light-sheets on a cylindrical particle near an infinite boundary

This work aims to extend the previous studies on the optical radiation force and torque for a cylindrical dielectric particle to the case near an infinite boundary. Without loss of generality, the two-dimensional cylindrical object is assumed to have an arbitrary shape and be immersed in any light -sheet beam of arbitrary wave front. The partial -wave series expansion method in cylindrical coordinates and the method of images are utilized to derive the exact expressions for the axial and transverse radiation force and torque functions, which are dependent on the beam shape coefficients of the incident light -sheet and the scattering coefficients characterized by the boundary conditions at the surface. Numerical computations are performed for a circular cylindrical particle illuminated by a two-dimensional plane wave and a two-dimensional Gauss beam, respectively, with particular emphases on the size parameter, the refractive index, the particle -boundary distance, the beam waist and the offset shifts. The radiation force will increase in magnitude and reverse its direction under selected conditions. When the absorptive cylindrical particle is shifted off -axially with respect to the beam axis, it will be rotated counterclockwise or clockwise by the radiation torque. The results obtained in this work have potential applications in non -contact particle manipulation and transportation using optical tweezers.
