Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the fascinating world of plasmonics and physics at the nanoscale, with a focus on simulations and the theoretical aspects of optics and nanotechnology. A research field with numerous applications, plasmonics bridges the gap between the micrometer length scale of light and the secrets of the nanoworld. This is achieved by binding light to charge density oscillations of metallic nanostructures, so-called surface plasmons, which allow electromagnetic radiation to be focussed down to spots as small as a few nanometers. The book is a snapshot of recent and ongoing research and at the same time outlines our present understanding of the optical properties of metallic nanoparticles, ranging from the tunability of plasmonic resonances to the ultrafast dynamics of light-matter interaction. Beginning with a gentle introduction that highlights the basics of plasmonic interactions and plasmon imaging, the author then presents a suitable theoretical framework for the description of metallic nanostructures. This model based on this framework is first solved analytically for simple systems, and subsequently through numerical simulations for more general cases where, for example, surface roughness, nonlinear and nonlocal effects or metamaterials are investigated.

This book was released on 2011-10-08 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The common belief is that light is completely reflected by metals. In reality they also exhibit an amazing property that is not so widely known: under some conditions light flows along a metallic surface as if it were glued to it. Physical phenomena related to these light waves, which are called Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPP), have given rise to the research field of plasmonics. This thesis explores four interesting topics within plasmonics: extraordinary optical transmission, negative refractive index metamaterials, plasmonic devices for controlling SPPs, and field enhancement phenomena near metal nanoparticles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metal Nanostructures for Photonics presents updates on the development of materials with enhanced optical properties and the demand for novel metal-dielectric nanocomposites and nanostructured materials. The book covers various aspects of metal-dielectric nanocomposites and metallic-nanostructures and illustrates techniques used to prepare and characterize materials and their physical properties. It focuses on three main sections, nanocomposites with enhanced luminescence properties due to contributions of metal nanoparticles hosted in photonic glasses, near and far-field optical phenomena, and the optical response of single nanoparticles that reveal quantum phenomena in the nanoscale, amongst other topics. This book will serve as an important research reference for materials scientists who want to learn more on how a range of metallic nanostructured materials are used in photonics. Sets out the properties of a range of metal-dielectric nanostructures and nanocomposites, along with the use cases for each in photonics Discusses the pros and cons of using different metallic nanostructures for different photonic applications Includes case studies that illustrate how metallic nanostructures have successfully been applied in photonics

Download or read book Optical Properties of Metal Oxide Nanostructures written by Vijay Kumar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-25 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the optical properties of metal oxides at both the fundamental and applied level and their use in various applications. The book offers a basic understanding of the optical properties and related spectroscopic techniques essential for anyone interested in learning about metal oxide nanostructures. This is partly due to the fact that optical properties are closely associated with other properties and functionalities (e.g., electronic, magnetic, and thermal), which are of essential significance to many technological applications, such as optical data communications, imaging, lighting, and displays, life sciences, health care, security, and safety. The book also highlights the fundamentals and systematic developments in various optical techniques to achieve better characterization, cost-effective, user-friendly approaches, and most importantly, state-of-the-art developing methodologies for various scientific and technological applications. It provides an adequate understanding of the imposed limitations and highlights the prospects and challenges associated with optical analytical methods to achieve the desired performance in targeted applications.

This book was released on 2009-07-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optical properties are among the most fascinating and useful properties of nanomaterials and have been extensively studied using a variety of optical spectroscopic techniques. A basic understanding of the optical properties and related spectroscopic techniques is essential for anyone who is interested in learning about nanomaterials of semiconductors, insulators or metal. This is partly because optical properties are intimately related to other properties and functionalities (e.g. electronic, magnetic, and thermal) that are of fundamental importance to many technological applications, such as energy conversion, chemical analysis, biomedicine, optoelectronics, communication, and radiation detection.Intentionally designed for upper-level undergraduate students and beginning graduate students with some basic knowledge of quantum mechanics, this book provides the first systematic coverage of optical properties and spectroscopic techniques of nanomaterials.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 1754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While past research has considered the interaction between metal nanoparticles and photo-sensitive molecules, especially the possibility of initiating nanoscale photopolymerization based on the localized surface plasmons of such particles, this PhD dissertation describes the in-depth characterization and optimization of such interactions that result in nanoscale photopolymerization. The present work demonstrates our ability to use the nanophotopolymerization process to quantitatively map with unprecedented resolution, better than 5 nm, both, the near-field of metallic nanoparticles associated with their localized surface plasmons, and the local electric fields resulting from surface charges density at metal/dielectric interfaces. We will emphasize that a precise characterization of the nanoscale molecular mold of the confined electromagnetic field of metal colloids enabled us to quantify the near-field depth and its enhancement factor. Moreover, a near-field spectrum corresponding to the response of localized surface plasmons of a single metal nanoparticle will be assessed. Additionally, we present nanoscale resolution maps of the spatial distribution of the surface charge density created by the electric field dis-continuity at a non-resonant metal/dielectric interface. Furthermore, this work will prove that the nanoscale photopolymerization approach does not only map the near-field of metal nanoparticles, yet it constitutes, from a more fundamental point of view, a unique opportunity to investigate nanophotochemistry.
