Abstract: Disclosed a photonic motor that comprises a first optical waveguides arrangement, including at least one first optical resonator lying in a first plane and forming a static part of the motor; at least a second optical waveguides arrangement, including at least one second optical resonator lying in a second plane parallel to the first plane and forming a moving part of the motor, wherein an evanescent-wave coupling of optical modes is established between at least one first optical resonator of the first optical waveguides arrangement and at least one second optical resonator of the second optical waveguides arrangement, the first and second optical resonator being adapted to guide at least one resonant symmetric mode at a predetermined first wavelength or at least one resonant anti-symmetric mode at a predetermined second wavelength or at least a combination or superposition of at least one resonant symmetric mode at a predetermined first wavelength.
