Description
The rapidly developing field of magnetoplasmonics merges the concepts from plasmonics and magnetism to realize novel and unexpected phenomena and functionalities for the manipulation of light at the nanoscale. Owing to the intertwined optical and magneto-optical properties, magnetoplasmonics may offer a smart toolbox for actively tuneable optical ultrathin surfaces and metasurfaces.
Our Group activity focuses on the exploration of fundamental and applied aspects of nanomagnetism and nano-optics, i.e. magnetoplasmonics, including magnetic properties design and characterization, experimental characterization and modeling of optical and magnetooptical response at the nanoscale. Besides having a fundamental interest for a broader understanding and control of optics at the nanoscale, magnetoplasmonic nanoantennas and metasurfaces have already shown a clear path towards applications to variety of emerging technologies as, e.g., ultrasensitive molecular sensing and ultrathin optical devices.
