Introduction to nanophotonics
Nanophotonics is where photonics merges with nanoscience and nanotechnology, and where spatial confinement considerably modifies light propagation and light-matter interaction. The textbook highlights practical issues, material properties and device feasibility, and includes the basic optical proper...
