The Fan Group engages in theoretical and computational research of photonic crystals, micro-photonic and nano-photonic
structures, and solid state devices more generally. Our
research also spans an array of other fields, including Plasmonics, Meta-materials, Quantum Optics and Computational Electromagnetics.
Our research group is led by
Professor Shanhui Fan. Specific topics of recent interest include:
- Plasmonic Imaging
- Altering Thermal Behavior
- Nanophotonics for Photovoltaics
- Slow Light and Optical Isolators
- Single- and Two-Photon Transport Theory
- High-Index Metamaterials
