behavior (Research fields: solid-state physics, molecular plasmonics and photonics).
Major Research Activities
1. Electromagnetic Modeling of metallic nanostructures in the framework of the Discrete Dipole
Approximation (DDA). Some contributions to the development of the computational scheme of
DDA have been done:
i.
an external parallel Fortran routine was written to compute the near field in an arbitrary set of
points
external
to
the
scatterer
(http://adda.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/misc/near_field/nearfield_manual.txt);
ii.
a self-consistent tool (PLASMONICode) was implemented able to include dipolar fields
generated by punctual sources in the DDA calculations and to solve the problem of the
metal-emitter mutual interactions.
2. Ab Initio calculations, in the scheme of Density Functional Theory (DFT), on hybrid SAM-metallic
surface systems (such as methanethiol/Cu(110), methanethiolate/Au(111), biphenyl/Au(111)
etc.).
3. Analysis of the optical behaviour of electro-optocal devices (Organic Light Emitting Diodes OLEDs) in the Chance-Prock-Silbey theory.
4. Quantum Electrodynamics study of quantum effects as vacuum Rabi splitting and single photon
emission in systems involving strong coupling interactions between Frenkel excitons and
plasmons (plexcitons).
