Abstract
Structured light carrying spin and orbital angular momentum brings about new light-matter interactions in optical nanostructures. We demonstrate the possibility of using structured light beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) to access resonant modes of all-dielectric meta-atoms that cannot be excited by the conventional Gaussian beam or by a plane wave. We use multipole decomposition approach to match extinction resonances with high-order multipole excitation. These results can find applications in sensing, spectroscopy, and enable new regimes of nonlinear optical interactions.
