Scope

Noble metal nanoparticles/nanostructures can interact with UV - near IR light, exhibiting unique optical events at their local surface regions. This is called localized surface plasmon resonance. Surface plasmon resonance also occurs on the thin films of noble metals. Science and technology dealing with surface plasmon resonance is called plasmonics. Plasmonics has been attracting increasing attention all over the world, since it has the potental to overcome the limit of the diffraction of light. The creation of plasmonic nanoparticles/nanostructures is indispensable for the expansion of plasmonics. In this session, we discuss on novel methods of fabricating plasmonic nanoparticles/nanostructures, applications to photonics, bio, sensing, and nanoscale devices.

Topics

1. Unique plasmonic nanoparticles/nanostructures
2. Organization and Arrangement of nanoparticles
3. Photochemical Appications
4. Sensing Applications
5. Photonics Applications
