Abstract :
Hybrid optoplasmonic microresonator-based components will be discussed. They enable dynamical activation/switching of electromagnetic hot-spots, ultrasensitive bio(chemical) detection, and efficient photon generation, routing, and re-focusing into nanoscale volumes accessible to both far-field and on-chip detection.
