Optical Response of Nanostructures (eBook, PDF)

Microscopic Nonlocal Theory

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book gives a theoretical description of linear and nonlinear optical responses of matter with special emphasis on the microscopic and "nonlocal" nature of resonant response. The response field and induced polarization are determined self-consistently in terms of simultaneous linear or nonlinear polynomial equations. This scheme is a general one with its position between QED and macroscopic response theory, but is most appropriate for determining the dependence of optical signals on the size, shape, and internal structure of a nanostructure sample. As a highlight of the scheme, the multi-resonant enhancement of the DFWM signal is described together with its experimental verification.

Rezensionen

From the reviews: "This is a densely written book, covering a wide range of topics related to the interactions between light and matter using 'a new semiclassical theory from the microscopic nonlocal point of view'. ... I liked the book. It has given me a new insight to some of the problems it deals with. ... This book would be good for researchers and would be a useful addition to many scientific libraries." (A D Greentree, The Physicist, Vol. 41 (1), 2003)
