Martin Dressel (Universitat Stuttgart)26/07/2012, 08:30Correlated PhysicsInvitedMartin Dressel The response of matter on a temporally and spatially varying electromagnetic field at a certain point and a certain time depends on the field strength prior to this time at places close to this point. Hence the material parameters become a function of frequency $\omega$ and wavevector q, in general. While the frequency dispersion is common knowledge and widely utilized,...Go to contribution page

Daniel Mittleman (Rice University)26/07/2012, 09:00Nanoscale SpectroscopiesInvitedDaniel Mittleman, Rice University Concentrating optical energy into an ultra-small spot beyond the diffraction limit has long been an interesting topic in photonics. One of the most popular methods is to use subwavelength-sized plasmonic waveguides, based on the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) on metallic surfaces. While most of the studies on plasmonic waveguides have been...Go to contribution page

Kats, Zeno Gaburro School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University Cambrideg, MA02138 Conventional optical components such as lenses and holograms rely on gradual phase shifts accumulated during light propagation to shape light beam. New degrees of freedom in optical design are attained by...Go to contribution page
