Nanoscale Elctro-Optics
Research
Recent advances in nanotechnology grant us the opportunity to fabricate structures with features which are much smaller than optical wavelengths. As a consequence, the optical properties of these materials are no longer determined by nature, but by their building blocks and design concepts. This provides a powerful tool to control light better than ever. At the NEO Lab we are using this to explore the interaction of light and matter at the nanometer scale, in order to gain fundamental understanding of the underlying physical rules of the nano world and to develop new electro-optical devices.
