Electromagnetic coupling between plasmonic resonances in metallic nanoparticles allows for engineering of the optical response and generation of strong localized near-fields. Classical electrodynamics ...

The optical properties of metallic nanoparticles with nanometre dimensions exhibit features that cannot be described by classical electrodynamics. In this quantum size regime, the near-field ...

Mr. Gardiner M. Lane '81 has made a generous gift to the Corporation under which the Classical Department will be able to invite, for several successive years, European scholars of eminence to come ...

A series of 10 free lectures at the University of Chicago will explore the bewildering number and variety of energy transformations that make everyday conveniences possible. These are easy to take for ...
