We study the interactions of light with precisely designed artificial nanostructures, including plasmonic nanostructures, photonic crystals, metamaterials, and metasurfaces, from a viewpoint of optical momentum and angular momentum. Our goal is to create novel all-optical nanomanipulation and nanoactuators, by understanding and controlling these interactions, that will revolutionize a wide range of science and technology, from future medicine in nanosurgery, drug delivery, and healthcare to quantum mechanics and astronomy.
