Plasmonics and Light-Matter Interactions in Two-Dimensional Materials and in Metal Nanostructures

This thesis presents a comprehensive theoretical description of classical and quantum aspects of plasmonics in three and two dimensions, and also in transdimensional systems containing elements with different dimensionalities. It focuses on the theoretical understanding  of the salient features of plasmons in nanosystems as well as on the multifaceted aspects of plasmon-enhanced light–matter inter...
