Dr Abel Santos - Recent Developments in Optical Engineering of Nanoporous Anodic Alumina Photonic Crystals for Optical Sensing and Photocatalysis Applications

Date: Thu, 14 May 2020, 11:10 am - 12:00 pm
Location: Zoom meeting

Since the introduction of the concept of photonic crystal (PC) by Yablonovitch and John in 1987, multiple theoretical implementations and technological realisations of PCs in the fields of imaging, quantum communication, photocatalysis and sensing have been demonstrated.
