plasmons for applied work by W Boudville (Terra, Sol 3)  4 Stars
February 16, 2005
Surface and local plasmons are a useful investigative tool for studying the electronic properties of various surfaces. Especially as shown here, when those surfaces might be masks used in lithography, or in disks, for computer data. Now this book shows how the coupling can be used in fabrication steps.
This book takes research far beyond the pioneering efforts of Kretschmann, in the early 1970s, or of John Swan, in the 1960s and 70s, at the University of Western Australia. Back then, those works were pure research. Whereas the current text has an emphasis on applications. In no small part because we can now fabricate heterostructures whose characteristic lengths are comparable to those of the wavelengths of the light used to excite the plasmons.
