Chapter 9 a Pplications : N Anophotonics and P Lasmonics

چکیده
Both nanophotonics and plasmonics concern investigations into building, manipulating, and characterizing optically active nanostructures with a view to creating new capabilities in instrumentation for the nanoscale, chemical and biomedical sensing, information and communications technologies, enhanced solar cells and lighting, disease treatment, environmental remediation, and many other applications. Photonics and plasmonics share the characteristic that at least some of their basic concepts have been known for 40–50 years, but they have come into their own only in the last ten years, based on recent discoveries in nanoscience. Photonic materials and devices have played a pervasive role in communications, energy conversion, and sensing since the 1960s and 1970s. Photonics at the nanoscale, or nanophotonics might be defined as “the science and engineering of light-matter interactions that take place on wavelength and subwavelength scales where the physical, chemical, or structural nature of natural or artificial nanostructure matter controls the interactions” (NRC 2008). Broadly speaking, over the next ten years nanophotonic structures and devices promise dramatic reductions in energies of device operation, densely integrated information systems with lower power dissipation, enhanced spatial resolution for imaging and patterning, and new sensors of increased sensitivity and specificity.

متن کاملThe Systematic Structure of Ethical concepts and Statements in the Chapter of Israa
Analyzing ethical statements in the holy Quran by the method of content analyzing in order to explain their effects in personal and social guidance is of important part. This paper, showing ethical tatements in the chapter of Israa as a model, analyzing and classifying them based on their topics, has explained the complete guidance model of the chapter. Ethical statements of the chapter have be...
متن کاملSteps toward the weak higher category of weak higher categories in the globular setting
We start this article by rebuilding higher operads of weak higher transformations, and correct those in cite{Cambat}. As in cite{Cambat} we propose an operadic approach for weak higher $n$-transformations, for each $ninmathbb{N}$, where such weak higher $n$-transformations are seen as algebras for specific contractible higher operads. The last chapter of this article asserts that, up to precise...
متن کاملExamining the purport of [Islam prevails over all religions] on the negation of pluralism in the age of advent based on verse 9 of chapter As-Saff
Many Western thinkers subscribe to the theory of Pluralism. This idea is based on the assumption that there are different ways of salvation. The religion of Islam has a monopoly on the path to the truth. Some verses of the Holy Quran with emphasis on the verses "Islam prevails over all religions" can be used as an intra-religious response to the notion of pluralism. This research has tried to e...
