In this work, we show that optical nanovortices can be directly generated by using an incident circularly polarized plane wave to excite two interlocked multimer antennas with a pi-phase-shifted temporal response. Whereas a non-resonant nanovortex antenna is formed by simply combining two multimer antenna with red-shifted and blue-shifted dipole resonances, respectively, a 3D assembly of dipole resonators is needed to design a resonant nanovortex antenna. To avoid complex fabrication methods necessary to fabricate such 3D assembly of nanoparticles, a 2D resonant nanovortex antenna may alternatively be designed by combining dipole and longitudinal quadrupole resonators.
