Nanoplasmonics makes the impossible possible

Tuesday, October 13, 2015 - 08:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Over a five-year period, Alexander Dmitriev and his research team at Chalmers will take on a task that until now has been deemed impossible: creating strong interaction between light and magnetic fields and determining ways to control light with magnetism on the nanoscale. The Harnessing light and spins through plasmons at the nanoscale project has received close to SEK 38 million from the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, and may eventually lead to more effective ways to process and store information with light and create different types of optical elements.
