| | Description | Considered a major field of photonics, plasmonics offers the potential to confine and guide light below the diffraction limit and promises a new generation of highly miniaturized photonic devices. This book combines a comprehensive introduction with an extensive overview of the current state of the art. Coverage includes plasmon waveguides, cavities for field-enhancement, nonlinear processes and the emerging field of active plasmonics studying interactions of surface plasmons with active media. | |

Plasmonics N00b Sep 25, 2009
By SMR
I didn't know anything about plasmonics when I started the course in which we use this text. Therefore, I have trouble recommending it over another, but it seems to approach the material at an appropriate level for a first course. All I can say is you better brush up on your EM and wave physics before diving in; this text doesn't spend much time on refreshing your memory.

 Incomplete superficial notes made into a book Oct 22, 2011
By Mayer A. Landau
This book is divided into two parts theory and applications. The book does a terrible job with both. For starters, plasmonics requires a serious discussion about the Drude and Lorentz models, as well as polarization. The author breezily skims through the theory, subsisting on pretty pictures and lots of graphs that kind of sit lonely on the page waiting for some kind of deeper explanation. When the author's theory-lite does not do, no problem, just add terms ad hoc to the formulas. Inexplicably, when the author does spend time on the theory, it is of the most banal and basic type, such as deriving the modes for a resonator. The applications part is no better. The chapters feel like journal articles - the type that report results but don't provide nearly enough details for carrying out the experiment and theory yourself. You are far far better off reading many of the original articles than wasting the going list price on this book.
 Great book Apr 14, 2011
By Joel
Given there is not much literature on the subject matter outside of published papers that I have found. Still the book is extremely well written, works through the rigorous math but explains the main points in very good details where you don't fully need to understand the math to have a general understanding of the subject. Highly recommend it.

Wonderful Jun 28, 2010
By X. GUAN
I looked through the first four chapters of this book, and I find it clear-written. It is very helpful for a beginner in the plasmonics field.
