In this work, an all‐dielectric photonic metasurface with a flat macroscopic geometry is shown to provide a viable solution toward realization of a relativistic light sail driven by …
The photonic propulsion of lightsails can be used to accelerate spacecraft to relativistic velocities, providing a feasible route for the exploration of interstellar space in the human …
Laser-driven metasails can enable reaching velocities far beyond the chemically propelled spacecrafts, which accounts for precise engineering of the acceleration and the stability …
Orbital angular momentum and polarization states of highly focused vector vortex beams can be engineered to selectively excite the desired multipoles in nanoparticles, making them …
