Topic 5. Nanophotonics
Session Chairs:
- Dr. Yu Siu Fung, Nanyang Technological University (Singapore)
- Dr. Sun Xiaowei, Nanyang Technological University (Singapore)
Nanophotonics is the nano-engineering of light-matter interactions so that new phenomena of physics can be utilized to develop novel optoelectronics devices which can be well beyond the capability of the conventional photonics and electronics. This conference is intended for anyone who wishes to learn about light-matter interactions on the nano-scale as well as possible applications of nanotechnology. Original research contributions are sought in the areas including (but not limited to)
- Optical interactions on nanometer scale
- Near-field optics and surface plasmons nano-optics
- Novel optical methods for self assembled nanostructures
- Photonic crystals
- Resonant and light-amplified nano-photonic devices
- Nano-crystals in optical amplification and lasing
- Quantum wells, quantum wires and quantum dots LEDs and lasers
