Abstract :
Resonances can give rise to the appearance of large and highly frequency selective optical forces on microparticles. The forces are studied in two cases: when intrinsic resonances in dielectric particles exist and when resonances are created as a result of the interaction of particles with waveguides. The resonant forces can be used for high accuracy particle sorting and power-efficient particle manipulation.
