Amplifying optical gradient forces with metamaterials

Amplifying optical gradient forces with metamaterials

We demonstrate how transformation optics can be used to amplify optical gradient forces. We show how meta-materials allow to enhance optical forces between waveguides over several orders of magnitude, even when realistic losses are included.
