Focus:

Plasmonic effects based on localized (or particle) surface plasmon resonance and directed towards molecules and molecular conjugates represent an emerging field between nanooptics and life sciences with a great potential for applications especially in diagnostics and therapy. The meeting focuses on recent developments in this field. This includes e.g. phenomenon occuring at molecular components due to local field enhancement effects, interactions with fluorescent dyes, sub-wavelength apertures, synthesis pathways to controlled spectroscopic properties based on size/geometry/composition as well as comparisons of simulations with experimental results.

This symposium is situated in every two years in Jena!
