(a) Force exerted on a spherical (Rayleigh) particle of 30 nm in diameter when it is illuminated by a tightly focused fundamental Gaussian beam of 4 μm in radius at the focal point. m = 1.097 is used. (b) The normalized z-component of the radiation force on y = 0 plane. The zone of vanishing z-component of the radiation force is along the dashed line in white. (c) The exerted force on a spherical (Rayleigh) particle of 30 nm in diameter for TE10 (TM10) mode of the same beam radius. (d) The normalized z-component of the radiation force on x = 0 plane.
