The primary goal of the lecture is to teach students the modern optical theory of periodic nanostructures, which is necessary in the design and analysis of derived optical devices and metamaterials in the frame of photonics. The secondary goal is to show examples of photonic applications, which are apt to replace traditional optical, electronic, or optoelectronic elements and materials. The tertiary goal is to show basic experimental methods of optical measurement of periodic nanostructures. |
