   Sammanfattning : Optical properties of semiconductor nanowires (NWs)/nanopillars (NPs), as individual or ensemble, have attracted significant research interest in recent years. Their potential applications range from solid-state lighting, photovoltaics, lasing and nonlinear optics to sensing and life sciences. LÄS MER

3. 7. Optical properties of active photonic materials

   Författare :Yong Zeng; Ying Fu; Philip Russell; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanophotonics; plasmonics; Theoretical chemistry; Teoretisk kemi;

   Sammanfattning : Because of the generation of polaritons, which are quasiparticles possessing the characteristics of both photonics and electronics, active photonic materials offer a possible solution to transfer electromagnetic energy below the diffraction limit and further increase the density of photonic integrated circuits. A theoretical investigation of these exciting materials is, therefore, very important for practical applications. LÄS MER

4. 8. Investigation of New Concepts and Solutions for Silicon Nanophotonics

   Författare :Zhechao Wang; Lech Wosinski; Kresten Yvind; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Planar integrated circuit; silicon photonics; slot waveguide; finite-difference time-domain; waveguide grating coupler; ring resonator; polarization diversity scheme; polarization beam splitter; polarization rotator; hybrid silicon laser; epitaxial lateral overgrowth; chemical-mechanical polishing.; Optics; Optik;

   Sammanfattning : Nowadays, silicon photonics is a widely studied research topic. Its high-index-contrast and compatibility with the complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology make it a promising platform for low cost high density integration. LÄS MER

5. 9. Nanostructured electromagnetic metasurfaces at optical frequencies

   Författare :Nils Odebo Länk; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; high-index nanophotonics; colloidal lithography; metasurfaces; geometric resonances; nanostructures; plasmonics;

   Sammanfattning : Electromagnetic metasurfaces are broadly defined as optically thin layersthat are structured on the subwavelength scale. In general, metasurfacesthus consist of nanoparticles, or other kinds of ”meta-atom”, arranged insome pattern where both the individual particle sizes and the inter-particledistances are much smaller than the wavelength.

7. 10. Alloy Plasmonics - Fundamentals and Application in Catalysis

   Författare :Christopher Tiburski; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CO oxidation; nanoparticles; gold; heterogeneous catalysis; LSPR; nanoalloys; nanofabrication; light; dielectric function; palladium;

   Sammanfattning : Alloys have for a long time been important in the development of our society; from the bronze age, where man learned how to alloy copper with tin, to today, where many products are made of steel and aluminum alloys. Similarly, but maybe not as generally well known, also in heterogeneous catalysis alloys are explored to develop solutions to increase activity and selectivity of chemical processes. LÄS MER
