6. Nanomaterials for optics and optoelectronics

The properties and applications of nanomaterials in the field of optics derive partly from classical physics and partly from quantum physics.

6.1 Surface plasmons

In the first category are surface plasmons, which govern the absorption properties of metal particles dispersed in an insulating matrix. This subject has been covered in . Let us simply point out that surface plasmons are excitations whose frequency ω s can be deduced from the plasmon frequency ω p :...
