Metamaterials and plasmonics : fundamentals, modelling, applications: Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Metamaterials for Secure Information and Communication Technologies, Marrakech, Morocco, 7-10 May 2008

Metamaterials and plasmonics are cross-disciplinary fields that are emerging into the mainstream of many scientific areas. Examples of scientific and technical fields which are concerned are electrical engineering, micro- and nanotechnology, microwave engineering, optics, optoelectronics, and semiconductor technologies. In plasmonics, the interplay between propagating electromagnetic waves and free-electron oscillations in materials are exploited to create new components and applications. On the other hand, metamaterials refer to artificial composites in which small artificial elements, through their collective interaction, creates a desired and unexpected macroscopic response function that is not present in the constituent materials. Most up-to-date information (NATO ARW of 2008) about the field Articles by the cutting-edge researchers in the fields of metamaterials and plasmonics Covers both theory, modelling, fabrication, and applications Global coverage: authors come from all the important research groups in the world
