Photonic Crystal, Plasmonic, and Hybrid Interfaces: Fundamentals and Applications of Photo-plasmonic Modalities explores the field where photonic crystals and plasmonic materials meet, bringing together concepts from optics, electromagnetism, chemical physics, and materials science to explain light-matter interactions at photo-plasmonic modalities. Initial chapters discuss basic principles, such as the physics of photonic crystals and design methods. Then, the book moves on to discuss how to create photonic crystal structures with specific optical properties for various applications and explores the fundamentals and latest developments in plasmonic technologies and their unique optical properties.

Finally, it covers the many applications of combining photonic crystals and plasmonic materials, including practical examples and case studies to help readers understand how theoretical concepts are applied in real life. This will be a valuable resource to academic and industrial researchers, graduate students, engineers, and professionals who need comprehensive information on photonics and plasmonics, and both theory and practical knowledge on hybrid interfaces.
