Nano-Optics, Plasmonics, and Advanced Materials Workshop

This workshop will bring together invited speakers from leading research groups working at the intersection of these three disciplines to present their work in an open and interactive setting.  The purpose of the meeting is to explore new connections between seemingly disparate fields that might lead to advances in fundamental understanding as well as new functionalities and applications where the optical properties of plasmonic objects might be joined to semiconductor, organic and biologically active materials.

The format will be Gordon-conference-like with plenty of time for informal discussion and exploration of new ideas with both attendees and speakers.
