Abstract

We analyze the optical forces acting on a nanoparticle placed in the vicinity of a plasmonic interface. We show that the under oblique plane wave excitation the nanoparticle excites surface plasmon polariton propagating along the plasmonic interface. The momentum conservation law in the plane of the interface results in appearance of optical recoil force attracting the particle to the source of light. The analyzed recoil force could increase the radiation pressure force by an order of magnitude.
