Function and fundamental processes of nano-optoelectronics devices

Nano-optoelectronics devices are those realizing functions of signal transfer/processing in nanometer scale based on optical near-field excitation transfer between nanometer-sized electronic systems. Important issues involved in fabricating and operating nano-optoelectronics devices are to understand and control space-time correlation and hierarchy feature involved in optical near-field interactions as well as dissipation processes as the basis of unidirectional excitation transfer in non-equilibrium open system. In this work, we study the function and fundamental processes of nano-optoelectronics devices from these view points.
