Abstract

The curved photonic nanojet (CPNJ) produced due to the interaction between a dielectric circular cylinder rotating at a stable angular velocity and a plane wave is investigated. Based on this model, the optical Magnus effect of a dielectric circular cylinder is verified. And the analytical expression of both internal and external electric field are given based on the instantaneous rest-frame theory and the partial-wave series expansion method in cylindrical coordinates. The influence of the size parameter, the relative refractive index, and the rotating dimensionless parameter on the CPNJ are analyzed and discussed in numerical results. The "photonic nanojet curved" effect is highlighted, which can be used to generate the off-axis photonic nanojet (PNJ) controlling particles by adjusting the angular velocity of the dielectric cylinder. The results of this manuscript have promising application prospects in optical tweezers, particle manipulation, and optical trapping. Moreover, it also provides theoretical support for the particle spinning and generation of the off-axis CPNJ.
