| Kurzbeschreibung | Nanophotonics exploits the unique optical properties of nanostructured materials to boost our control over light, beyond what conventional optics can do. In particular, nanophotonics has proven to offer a unique toolbox to engineer light on the nanometer scale, benefiting a wide spectrum of scientific disciplines, ranging from physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering. | |||||||||||
| Lernziel | The purpose of this course is threefold: (i) to introduce students to the principal concepts of nanophotonics, (ii) to describe some of the main nanophotonics implementations to control light on the nanometer scale, and finally (iii) to present specific applications where nanophotonics has made breakthrough contributions. | |||||||||||
