This book explores the role of surface effects in optical
phenomena in nanoscience, from two different perspectives. When
systems are reduced in volume, the ratio of surface versus volume
increases. At the level of single nanostructures this translates
into an enhanced role of interfacial chemistry and thermodynamics.
At the level of systems of nanostructures, it translates into
larger density on interfaces, which in turn leads to such
intriguing collective effects as plasmonics or multiple reflection
and refraction phenomena. The book highlights both perspectives
presenting sample applications. Without claiming to be exhaustive,
the book aims to stimulate readers in this potentially rewarding
field.
