Thin-films

Nano-optics research group at the University of Central Florida led by Dr. Debashis Chanda, a professor with a joint appointment in UCF's NanoScience Technology Center (NSTC) and College of Optics and Photonics (CREOL).

Research Focus

Thin-film solar cells, study of light-matter interactions in artificially structured metal/dielectric structures (metamaterials, plasmonic nanostructures), transformation optics for display/camouflage, printed optics/opto-electronics components, strong coupling between photonic and plasmonic resonances, biological/chemical sensors.
