Dpnding on th numrical aprtur and th polarization charactristics of th light at th ntranc pupil, th forc mrging from th spin dnsity may rprsnt a fundamntal contribution to th total forc xprincd by small (Rayligh) particls whn using high rsolution objctivs. Th prdictd and xprimntally obsrvd strong asymmtry of th trapping potntial for linar polarization is shown to b rlatd to non-consrvativ spin curl forcs. W dmonstrat th charactristics of this forc fild whn using linar polarizd light with circular and annular pupils and in th radial and azimuthal polarization structurs. Elsvir B.V. All rights rsrvd.. ntroduction Light can b usd to manipulat small micron and nano-sizd particls in soft mattr, allowing physics and biology xprimnts to b dsignd to obtain information about th particls or th surrounding nvironmnt. n ths xprimnts, prcis knowldg of th optical forcs is ssntial. Usually, th forcs ar gnratd by light bams focusd by microscop objctivs [,], which ar convnint optical systms for trapping or inducing movmnts of particls insid sampls from a distanc. Thr ar two typs of forc gnratd by light on th focal rgion of a microscop objctiv: th trapping forc and th scattring forc. Th first mrgs from th gradint of th optical intnsity distribution and is rsponsibl for th attractiv potntial xprincd by dilctric particls [3]. n th litratur, radiation prssur (proportional to th Poynting vctor), is usually [4,5] statd as th origin of th scattring forc. Dspit this, in high NA objctivs th scattring forc has also bn approximatd, apparing to b dpndnt not on th radiation prssur but on th intnsity of th optical fild [4,6]. Howvr, approximation is not ndd whn considring small Rayligh particls in an optical fild. n this cas, th scattring forc can b calculatd xactly [7,8] and th radiation prssur mrgs as th sourc of th scattring forc, togthr with an additional trm which, dpnding on th particular optical systm, may b crucial: th Corrsponding author. addrss: iic@um.s (. glsias). forc gnratd by th curl of th spin angular momntum of th light fild. This scond contribution has bn studid for optical filds in optical lattics [8 ] and, in gnral, du to th curl natur of th spin trm, it is most rlvant for th study of particl dynamics in nonconsrvativ forc filds [4, 3]. n this work, w show that this spin trm also plays a significant rol in th total scattring forc in th focal volum of high numrical aprtur (NA) objctivs. Spcifically, on a small dilctric sub-wavlngth particl, th total forc gradint forc plus scattring forc can b writtn as, n R E x E x + E y E y + E z E o z whr E is th lctrical fild and is th polarizability, which is rlatd with th inducd lctric dipol by p = E. For a divrgnc-fr fild, th scattring componnt can b split into two trms radiation prssur plus spin dnsity forc as [8]: F + F sd = σ c hsi + c ð h L siþ whr σ = kf gis th total (xtinction) cross sction (s Rf.

Th positiv or ngativ sign in Eq. (3) dpnds on th chosn tim dpndnc xp{ iωt}, which also mans that th corrsponding sign should b in th Maxwll quation E=±iωμ H. n addition to clarifying th physical origin of th scattring forc, th us of Eq. () rathr than Eq. () (subtracting th part corrsponding to th gradint forc), has th additional advantag of involving ral functions, which simplifis numrical computations whn daling with complicatd fild distributions. Whn th light is linarly polarizd, th spin dnsity of Eq. (3) is constant. Thrfor, th curl in Eq. () is idntically zro and thr is no spin trm F sd. Howvr, whn considring a microscop objctiv, vn using a linarly polarizd incoming light bam, a vctor rotation is inducd by th lns and additional fild componnts ar gnratd. For low NA, th light aftr th lns can still b considrd as linarly polarizd and th curl trm ignord, laving radiation prssur as th only sourc of th scattring forc. With high NA objctivs, this rotation of th lctric (and magntic) vctor is significant for numrous propagation dirctions. t follows that th spin dnsity of th light aftr th microscop objctiv cannot b considrd constant and th curl scattring forc trm cannot b discardd. Consquntly, to find th dtaild charactristics of this additional forc trm, it must b studid and compard with th radiation prssur in ordr to obtain a complt pictur of th scattring forcs at play in focal volums. Th rst of this papr is dvotd to discussing this in particular cass.. Scattring forcs in th focal volum.. Numrical computation of th forcs using th Dby diffraction intgral Th first stp is to obtain th complt lctric and magntic fild vctors in th focal volum. For this puos, lt us considr th gomtry sktchd in Fig.. For an incoming light bam, E i(kz ωt) x of uniform amplitud and linarly polarizd along th x-axis, following Fig.. Dfinition of coordinats and angls. E inc indicats th polarization dirction of th incoming lctrical fild; E is th lctrical fild aftr th rotation inducd by th lns; x, y and z ar th coordinat axs cntrd at th focal point; θ is th angl with th optical axis of a givn propagation vctor; ψ is th angl for th polar coordinats in th focal plan. Th angl dfins th numrical aprtur (NA=sin ). ð4þ Lommls approach [5], th fild, onc it has bn propagatd to th microscop focal rgion r =(x, y, z)=(ρ cos ψ, ρ sin ψ, z), can b xprssd in trms of th intgrals, and as [6] Er ðþ= ikf ikf E ð + cos ψ; sinψ; i cosψþ Hr ðþ= ikf E ikf ð sin ψ; cosψ; i sinψþ η whr, for simplicity, it has bn p assumd an indx of rfraction, f is th focal lngth, η = μ c = μ = ε is th vacuum impdanc and ðþ= r ðþ= r ðþ= r p cosθ p cosθ p cosθ sinθð+cosθ ÞJ ðkρ sinθþ ikz cosθ dθ sin θj ðkρ sinθþ ikz cosθ dθ sinθð cosθ ÞJ ðkρ sinθþ ikz cosθ dθ: Thus, ths intgrals hav to b numrically valuatd for ach fild point. As an altrnativ approach, th Dby diffraction intgral can b considrd as a Fourir transform [7,8], xprssing th fild componnts aftr propagation in th focal rgion as: Er ðþ= ẼðkÞ ikr dk xdk y dk z ; Hr ðþ= Hðk Þ ikr dk x dk y dk z ð7þ ðπþ 3 ðπþ 3 whr Ẽk ð Þ and HðkÞ ar th amplitud of th lctric and magntic fild componnts rspctivly bfor th propagation dfind in th rciprocal k-spac as functions of th wav vctor k = k x ; k y ; k z.n Eq.

W considr th simpl cas of an incoming bam of linarly polarizd light along th dirction dfind as th x-axis with =5 nm for a microscop objctiv charactrizd by =7. Ẽ i ðkþ and H i ðkþ ar sampld to fit matrics with 3 lmnts, padding th sphrical caps by mbdding th sampld valus in null matrics of 4 3 lmnts that ar transformd using a thr-dimnsional fast Fourir algorithm.

Th radiation prssur axial componnt, F z, in th top row of Fig. in panl A, shows th rotation symmtry sd around th optical axis (z-axis), which is absnt from th curl forc F z shown in th bottom row.

Th rlativ amplitud of th two contributions dpnds on th NA. Th main ffct of th curl forc is to rduc th forward scattring forc along th optical axis and to broadn th forward scattring around th optical axis from zro at ψ = 9 to its maximum in th xy Radial and azimuthally polarizd bams ar important xampls of non-uniform polarization in microscop objctivs [6,,].

Sinc th intnsity and forc fild componnts hav rotational symmtry around th optical axis for th radial (and azimuthal) polarization, w do not show th yz-plans in Figs. 6 and 7. n Fig. 7 it can b obsrvd that th radiation prssur has an annular structur and that th axial componnt of th curl forc is gratr than th corrsponding componnt of th radiation prssur.

Conclusion W hav shown that th forc that ariss from th curl of th spin dnsity of th light xrtd on th sub-wavlngth particls in th focal rgion of a high NA microscop objctiv is a crucial contributor to th total scattring forc. For linar polarization, th symmtry of th radiation prssur around th optical axis is brokn by th curl forc, which xplains th asymmtry of th total scattring forc that has bn obsrvd [6,]. For th radial and azimuthal polarization structurs, th curl forc is fundamntal for modling th total scattring forc, vn with modrat NA: in th first cas, mainly to xplain th scattring forc on and around th optical axis; in th scond, to modl th annular forc distribution that appars to b gnratd only by th radiation prssur sinc th curl forc is absnt in this cas. W hav shown that in linar, radial and azimuthal polarizations, th intnsity distribution is a good approximation of th total scattring forc (F s ẑ). Howvr, w also show that this is not th cas with th linar polarization and annular pupils, whr it is prfrabl to considr th sum of th radiation prssur and th curl forc to modl th total forc. n conclusion, it has bn shown that th dcomposition of th scattring forc in th focus of high NA objctivs in trms of radiation prssur and curl forc, whil providing a physical insight into its origin, is a simplmodling mthodfor agnral pupil plan polarization structur.

Linar polarization and annular pupil From th prvious rsults, it might b xpctd that th normalizd intnsity would b a good approximation for th scattring forc in th focal volum for a gnral polarization in th ntranc pupil plan of a high NA objctiv. Howvr this is not so in all cass, or at last th fit is not as good as might b xpctd, as can b sn in th xampl that follows. With linar polarization, vn with high NA microscop objctivs, clos-to-paraxial angular componnts contribut vry littl to th curl forc sinc th corrsponding spin dnsity in th focal volum is almost constant. Taking this into account, it is asy to s that th balanc btwn th radiation prssur and th curl forc is altrd with rspct to th uniform linar polarizd cas using annular pupils, which block paraxial light by mans of a cntral obscuration mask. Th objctivs with ths charactristics ar important for diffrnt applications sinc thy provid axially longatd intnsity distributions and qualizd lctric fild componnts which can b usd as xcitation probs [3]. Fig. 8 shows th rsult of th scattring forcs for an objctiv with an annular pupil illuminatd with an x-axis linar polarizd bam. Th graphs wr computd using Eq. (), and limiting th numrical intgration btwn angls =6 and =7. t can b obsrvd that th two forcs bcom mor qualizd in absolut valus on th optical axis. Howvr, contrary to th othr cass, th scald intnsity significantly ovrstimatd th scattring forc on th axis and undrstimatd it for points outsid th axis. Rfrncs [] D.G. Grir, Natur 44 (3) 8. [] A.
