| Sumario: | Assuming as a starting point our recent work on a dimer of silicon nanoparticles with light scattering directionality, we have explored the light interaction between the incoming and scattered electric fields in dimers made of other different semiconductors. The scattering directionality is achieved by accomplishing Kerker's conditions. By directing the scattered light towards the gap of the dimer, interferential effects can be used to achieve high or low light intensities as a basis of all-optical nanoswitches. A comparison between dimers of different materials is shown. |
