In this study we investigate the optical forces that can be generated in the vicinity of metal nanoparticle clusters using fully electrodynamic numerical simulations. The influence of the cluster configuration as well as of the excitation parameters is analyzed.5 p.application/pdfeng(c) Springer Verlag, 2014Materials òpticsNanopartículesNanotecnologiaOnes electromagnètiquesOptical materialsNanoparticlesNanotechnologyElectromagnetic wavesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6270612016-05-18info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
