The latest trends in nanophotonics

Abstract

Recent explosive growth in nanophotonics, ignited by the rapidly developing nanotechnologies, has demonstrated that light exhibits extraordinary light-matter interactions with subwavelength-scale structures. Such exotic light behaviors not only manifest the importance of searching for unprecedented optics but also suggest the possibility of real-world applications in the visible range. Indeed, recent progress in nanophotonics has revealed that nanophotonic-based devices and applications can be powerful candidates for replacing the conventional bulky optical components in a compact manner.
