Nanophotonics Summer School - SICILY, June 2007
«ETTORE MAJORANA» FOUNDATION AND CENTRE FOR SCIENTIFIC CULTURE
INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF QUANTUM ELECTRONICS
44th Course: ADVANCES ON NANOPHOTONICS II
44th Course: ADVANCES ON NANOPHOTONICS II
ERICE-SICILY: 22 JUNE - 2 JULY 2007
Course Directors: C. Sibilia and D.S. Wiersma
PURPOSE OF THE WORKSHOP:
There has been an increasing interest, in recent years, in nanophotonics. Nanophotonics is a very broad field, having fascinating aspects both from a fundamental point of view and with regard to future applications in photonic devices and materials. The scope of the school is to introduce participants to concepts, methods, applications and the state of the art in nanophotonics. The school will focus on both the theoretical and experimental aspects of the current research in this field, with an eye to applications.
