Nanophotonic

Nanophotonic or Nano-optics is the study of the behavior of light on the nanometer scale. It is considered as a branch of optical engineering which deals with optics, or the interaction of light with particles or substances, at deeply sub wavelength length scales. Nanophotonics, the study of light interaction with nanoscale structures, has emerged as a groundbreaking field with vast potential across various industries. By leveraging the unique properties of nanomaterials and nano-engineered structures, nanophotonics enables unprecedented control over light at scales much smaller than the wavelength of light. This field combines principles from physics, engineering, and materials science, leading to innovative applications that are transforming technology and healthcare.
