Focus on magnetoplasmonics

Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2014

In this 'focus on' collection, a snapshot of the new, fast emerging field of magnetoplasmonics is presented. The research in the field deals with the combination of plasmonics and magnetism to elucidate the fundamentals of spinplasmon interactions and reach new functionalities such as the enhancement of magneto-optical activity in various materials, active control of plasmons with weak magnetic fields, magnetoplasmonics-based bio- and chemical sensing, magnetophotonic and magnetoplasmonic crystals as modulators of light transmission and reflection, and many others.
