Nanophotonics : Accessibility and Applicability, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

The Committee on Technology Insight-Gauge, Evaluate & Review set up by the NRC at the request of the Defense Intelligence Agency, has selected a number of emerging technologies to investigate for their potential threats to and opportunities for national security.

This first study focused on emerging applications of nanophotonics, which is about the interaction of matter and light at the scale of the wavelength of the light.

Manipulation of matter at that scale allows tailoring the optical properties to permit a wide-range of commercial and defense applications.

This book presents a review of the nanoscale phenomena underpinning nanophotonics, an assessment of enabling technologies for developing new applications, an examination of potential military applications, and an assessment of foreign investment capabilitiesTable of ContentsFront MatterSummary1 Introduction2 Nanoscale Phenomena Underpinning Nanophotonics3 Enabling Technologies4 Potential Military Applications of Nanophotonics5 Foreign Investment Capabilities6 Overall CommentsAppendixesAppendix A: Biographical Sketches of Committee MembersAppendix B: Presentations to the CommitteeAppendix C: Previous StudiesAppendix D: Selected Research Groups In Plasmonics
