Opis: Nanoplasmonics - Vasily Klimov

Nanoplasmonics is one of the most important growth areas of this century. It is part of nano-optics and nanophotonics and deals with oscillations of electrons in metallic nanoparticles and nanostructures. Also, it is a multidisciplinary subject covering atomic, molecular, and solid-state physics, as well as much of chemistry. Nanoplasmonics makes it possible to combine the nanoscale properties of smart devices with their optical frequencies of operation. Nanoplasmonics presents, for the first time, both the physical principles and mathematical descriptions of main nanoplasmonic effects that now are scattered over thousands of research articles. Importantly, it contains many methods, accompanied by diagrams, for fast estimations and calculations of main properties of nanoparticles of very different shapes and their clusters. It also presents the most important applications of nanoplasmonics, including in medicine, nanolasers, electronics, perfect lenses, and invisibility cloaks. "This book is timely and provides the most up-to-date concepts for experts in nanoplasmonics. It is also a good starting point for students who wish to learn about nanoplasmonics for the first time. The author is one of the leaders in the field and is ideally positioned to present this comprehensive volume. This book will play an important role in taking the subjects of nano-optics, nanoplasmonics, and metamaterials to new heights of invention and application. The information, recipes, and processes in the text can be immediately useful in the fast-paced realms of both theoretical and experimental investigations. Every researcher in nanoplasmonics should all have a copy of this book on the bookshelf." -Prof. Vladimir M. Shalaev, Purdue University, USA "This book provides a lucid introduction to the field of optics of nanoparticles and nanostructures, including all the necessary background and a comprehensive review of this new area in the optics. Professor Klimov, a world-leading expert in nano-optics, nanoplasmonics, and metamaterials, has skillfully developed a volume that will be important for both experts and students just entering the exciting field of nanoplasmonics and metamaterials. This book will certainly find a place within easy reach on my shelf." - Prof. Victor G. Veselago, A. M.
