11. Active magnetoplasmonics for nanoscale distances sensing
Abstract : Magnetoplasmonics is an emerging field within nano-photonics that operates with the combination of propagating or localized surface plasmons and magnetism. Active and adaptive magnetoplasmonic components that are capable of controlling light on the nanoscale with external weak magnetic fields are envisioned to push the development of integrated photonic circuits, high-density data storage, or the advanced schemes for bio- and chemo-sensing.

12. Nanoparticle Plasmons in Classic and Novel Materials - Fundamentals and Hydrogen Sensing
Abstract : The interaction of light with sub-wavelength noble metal nanoparticles and nanostructures has developed into one of the most vibrant themes of nanoscience during the past decade. The optical properties of metal nanoparticles are dominated by so-called nanoparticle plasmons or localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR). READ MORE

13. Designer magnetoplasmonics for adaptive nano-optics
Abstract : Materials that provide real-time control of the fundamental properties of light at visible and near-infrared frequencies enable the essential components for future optical devices. Metal nanostructures that couple electromagnetic (EM) radiation on a sub-wavelength length scale to free electrons, forming propagating or localized surface plasmons, provide many exciting functionalities due to their ability to manipulate light via the local EM field shaping and enhancement.

14. Kinetic Measurements Using Nanoplasmonic Sensing
Abstract : In this thesis the nanoplasmonic sensing technique was used to study kinetics of (i) the oxidation of Al nanoparticles in air and water and (ii) the solid-liquid phase transition in Sn nanoparticles. The nanoplasmonic sensing technique detects changes of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in metal nanoparticles. READ MORE

15. Nanoparticle plasmon influence on the charge carrier generation in solar cells
Abstract : Global warming is a potential threat to life on earth and to human society. It is by much evidence linked to the extensive use of fossil fuels in our present energy system. Replacing the fossil fuels by alternative sources of energy poses a tremendous challenge for mankind, but is not at all undoable. READ MORE
