ECE 2240 - NANO-OPTICS

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Long Description A graduate level course designed for students who want to understand the mechanisms of interaction of light and matter at the nanometer scale, and become acquainted with nano-optics-based technologies. Topics include: electromagnetic theory of optical interaction with matter, optical waves in periodic media, photonic bandgap structures, surface plasmons, optical interaction with metal nanostructures (metal nanoapertures and arrays, and metal nanoparticles), surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy, plasmon coupling and concentration/funneling of electromagnetic energy, surface-enhanced raman scattering, near-field imaging and microscopy, and negative refraction. Prerequisite: junior or senior level em theory course.
