How does Nanotechnology Influence Optical Properties?


At the nanoscale, materials exhibit quantum effects that can dramatically change their optical properties. For instance, nanoparticles can exhibit surface plasmon resonance, where electrons on the nanoparticle's surface oscillate in response to light, leading to unique absorption and scattering properties. These effects can be harnessed to create new types of optical devices and sensors.
