Title

Abstract

We demonstrate that mutual electromagnetic interaction induces torques even in lossless spheres. This constitutes a new mechanism to gain energy from an external field, besides radiation pressure and absorption, and is fully controlled by polarization. ©2010 Optical Society of America.
