Reviews
'This book addresses one of the major recent topics in photonics. It is filling a gap, as for the first time applications of nanophotonics are properly introduced and discussed. It is written by two world-renowned experts in the field, and will represent an unmissable title for anyone wishing to pursue investigations in this topic.' Pierre-Michel Adam, Universite de Technologie de Troyes
'This authoritative text by Professors Gaponenko and Demir is a comprehensive guide to the rapidly growing field of applied nanophotonics. The authors guide the reader through the basics of nanophotonics in an accessible manner, describing both electron and electromagnetic wave confinement. The book goes on to describe advanced light sources, photonic circuitry, photovoltaics, colloidal photonics and biosensing. It is essential reading for graduate students, researchers, and professionals working in nanophotonics.' Tatiana Perova, Trinity College Dublin
