Position: Professor and Head of Institute

Institution attended: Institute of Applied Physics, Johannes Kepler University of Linz, Austria

Scientific interests: Nanophotonics

Lecture title: Metal Nanostructures and Active Materials.

Lecture abstract: Fluorescing species and metal nanoparticles show different forms of interaction such as dipole-dipole interactions, modulation of the fluorophores' radiative rate, the Purcell effect in -space and strong coupling. Physical principles as well as applications of these effects will be discussed.
