Energy flux between two spheres placed on a glass substrate and separated at wavelength-scale distances.
(a) Schematics of the calculated model, two spheres in the air laying of a glass substrate. (b,c) The dependence of the transferred amount of power (the Poynting vector) of s-polarized light between two 1068 nm spheres on the glass substrate as a function of the distance when the sphere-receptor is excited along the line connecting these spheres, λ = 1200 nm, φ = 0o for two polar angles, θ = 0 and 80o. Red and black lines are calculated with and without the back-action of spheres in a dimer, respectively. (d) The energy flux as a function of the separation distance and the polar angle θ at λ = 1200 nm, φ = 0o.
