The newly emerging field of wave front shaping in complex media has recently seen
enormous progress. The driving force behind these advances has been the experimental …

The isolated electronic spin system of the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centre in diamond offers
unique possibilities to be employed as a nanoscale sensor for detection and imaging of …

A review of nanoplasmonics is given. This includes fundamentals, nanolocalization of
optical energy and hot spots, ultrafast nanoplasmonics and control of the spatiotemporal …

The optics of correlated disordered media is a conceptually rich research topic emerging at
the interface between the physics of waves in complex media and nanophotonics. Inspired …

Nanostructured materials offer the possibility to tailor light–matter interaction at scales below
the wavelength. Metallic nanostructures benefit from the excitation of surface plasmons that …

Advancement of materials along with their fascinating properties play increasingly important
role in facilitating the rapid progress in medicine. An excellent example is the recent …

We describe a new multifractal finite-size scaling (MFSS) procedure and its application to
the Anderson localization-delocalization transition. MFSS permits the simultaneous …

We report on the unconventional optical properties exhibited by a two-dimensional array of
thin Si nanowires arranged in a random fractal geometry and fabricated using an …

Plasmonics is a rapidly developing field that blends together fundamental research and
applications ranging across physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, engineering, defense …

We report local spectra of the near-field thermal emission recorded by a Fourier transform
infrared spectrometer, using a tungsten tip as a local scatterer coupling the near-field …
