Abstract:

Plasmonics / Nanophotonics is a new branch of great significance in optics and spectroscopy, which will bring many ground-breaking reforms in the fields like information, biology and energy. The report will mainly introduce the discovery of the electromagnetic enhancement effect in the nanometer gap and the study of many aspects in ultra-sensitive sensor like the single molecule Raman spectroscope and the vertical distance discrimination of submeters; it will also introduce the physical mechanism and regulatory mechanism of the nano-waveguide isoionic propagation and the study of the photon router, completed optical logic as well as cascading of the half adder and the optical logic happened in a nano-waveguide network.
