Introduction to Nanophotonics

Description

This book is a logically well organized, rigorous, and comprehensive introduction to the broad and stimulating field of nanophotonics. Aiming at graduate-level students in physics, optical and electrical engineering as well as materials science, Prof. Gaponenko marvellously balances between the fundamental physical principles of electromagnetics, quantum mechanics and their technological applications to nano-optics and nanophotonics problems. State of the art research topics, such as nanoplasmonics, photonic crystals, and light waves in non-periodic complex media are rigorously presented in self-contained discussions that additionally offer thoughtful historical perspectives on the interplay and on the genesis of many physical and engineering concepts. Prof. Gaponenko has certainly written a profound and thoroughly engaging book that demonstrates his broad acquaintance with the experimental, theoretical and historical aspects of nanophotonics and nanotechnology. Anyone mastering the content of this book will be well prepared to understand and to actively engage in contemporary nanophotonics and nano-optics research.
