Nanophotonicsis a comprehensive introduction to the emerging area
concerned with controlling and shaping optical fields at a
subwavelength scale. Photonic crystals and microcavities are
extensively described, including non-linear optical effects.
Local-probe techniques are presented and are used to characterize
plasmonic devices. The emerging fields of semiconductor
nanocrystals and nanobiophotonics are also presented.
