Introduction to Nanophotonics

Nanophotonics deals with the interaction of light with matter at a nanometer scale, providing challenges for fundamental research and opportunities for new technologies, encompassing the study of new optical interactions, materials, fabrication techniques, and architectures, including the exploration of natural and synthetic, or artificially engineered, structures such as photonic crystals, holey fibers, quantum dots, subwavelength structures, and plasmonics. This book is intended to focus on all aspects of the fabrication and application of nanostructures and devices that help to understand or harness and utilize the behavior of light. The book covers a wide variety of scopes in those areas including principles of plasmonics, SPR, LSPR and their applications, graphene-based nanophotonic devices, generation of entangled photon and quantum dots, and perovskite solar cells.
