Can someone recommend a good book or some other resource which will teach me the basics of surface plasmons?
Thanks
Thanks
Surface Plasmons are collective oscillations of electrons that occur at the interface between a metal and a dielectric material. These oscillations are caused by the interaction between the electromagnetic field and the free electrons in the metal.
Surface Plasmons have a wide range of applications in fields such as optics, sensing, and nanotechnology. They can be used to enhance light-matter interactions, create sub-wavelength scale structures, and improve the sensitivity of sensors.
The level of detail and complexity, the author's expertise in the field, the publication date, and the specific topics covered are all important factors to consider when choosing a book on Surface Plasmons.
One highly recommended book on Surface Plasmons is "Surface Plasmon Resonance: Principles, Methods, and Applications" by E. Kretschmann and H. Raether. This book covers the fundamental principles of Surface Plasmons, experimental techniques, and various applications in detail.
Yes, there are several online resources for learning about Surface Plasmons, including research articles, video lectures, and online courses. Some recommended websites include OpticsInfoBase, SPIE Digital Library, and Coursera.
