Abstract
Interaction between the electromagnetic field and binary charged particles in altered dielectric systems has received interest in recent research endeavors in the field of optical and electromagnetic manipulation. Micro-level interactive forces among charged particles create electrostatic stability in the particle assembly in the altered dielectric system, which leads to a lattice structure that constitutes spacing. Under external field excitation, multiple particle configurations tend to show a considerable change in particle position at microscale that features the electromagnetic tunability of non-touching lattices. In addition to the tunable features, the multiple charged dielectric particle configurations in the inverted dielectric system offer optical bandgap control due to changes in the geometry of the lattices. The novelty of the features of these non-touching lattices holds the promise for designing tunable photonic surfaces.
