Nanophotonics

This comprehensive introduction to controlling and shaping optical fields at a subwavelength scale is written by distinguished scientists in nanophotonics and covers everything from the basics to the most advanced technologies. Topics discussed include photonic crystals and microcavities (including nonlinear optical effects), local-probe techniques (used to characterize plasmonic devices), and the emerging fields of semiconductor nanocrystals and nanobiophotonics.
