This PhD research essentially focuses on the development of computational algorithms investigating light-matter interaction at a nanometric scale. The light-nanoantenna interaction has attracted a considerable attention, particularly after entry into deep-nanometer regime; however, to our best knowledge, only a handful computationally related efforts have been made. This extremely small scale inevitably introduces quantum mechanical effects, ...

The recent grand leap in nanotechnology renders us the very capability of miniaturizing classical antennas down to the nanoscale and extends the concept of antennas from conventional RF frequencies to the optical regime. Very recently, the study of these nanoscale antennas, i.e. nanoantennas, has entered the so-called deep-nanometer regime, where the nanoantennas with characteristic dimensions of a few to tens of nanometers are considered. To ...
