Substrate and Fano Resonance Effects on the Reversal of Optical Binding Force between Plasmonic Cube Dimers

Abstract The behavior of Fano resonance and the reversal of near field optical binding force of dimers over different substrates have not been studied so far. Notably, for particle clustering and aggregation, controlling the near filed binding force can be a key factor. In this work, we observe that...
