Abstract :
The paper investigates and experimentally demonstrates components and devices based on engineered birefringent materials (space variant and space invariant), photonic crystals and surface plasmon polariton based components. The integration of these components with quantum dots to enhance nonlinear response functionality is also being investigated.
