Resonant states and their role in nanophotonics Video: https://unimeet.uni-graz.at/b/hoh-pct-ewg-jai Resonant phenomena have been extensively used in micro- and nanophotonics. These phenomena originate in a discrete set of basis functions known as resonant states or quasi-normal modes that are eigensolutions of Maxwell’s equations. I will introduce the fundamental principles and challenges of describing light-matter interaction in terms of these resonant states. Such a representation is very intuitive and provides deep insight about the underlying physical mechanisms. I will demonstrate this for various applications in fields such as chiral and nonreciprocal nanophotonics. |
