ABSTRACT

Optical vortex, which is associated with optical singularities, was

found a hundred years ago. The optical singularity, which is a point

where the Poynting vector of a wave is zero, has been developed

into a branch of optics (singular optics). The optical vortex can also

be created in the near-field region of a special low symmetric Taiji

pattern due to its plasmonic resonance. In this chapter, the optical

vortex of Taiji mark will be carefully analyzed. Furthermore, the

optical torque of the Taiji mark induced by optical vortex is studied

for the opto-mechanical oscillator.
