Gyroscopic Optomechanics

Abstract

We suggest the use of gyroscopic optical forces, originating from the angular momentum of circularly polarized light propagating inside a bent nano-waveguide, to facilitate mechanical deformation. Right-handed and left-handed circular polarizations induce opposite displacements.
