The Theory of Nanophoptonics Group studies the interaction of light and matter at the nanoscale.

By adopting theoretical methods of classical Electrodynamics, Condensed Matter Physics, Quantum Chemistry, and cavity-Quantum Electrodynamics, the group describes light scattering and emission from molecules and nanoscale materials in a variety of spectroscopy and microscopy configurations.

Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS), Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption (SEIRA), Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM), Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM), or Scattering-type Near-field Optical Microscopy (s-SNOM), are examples of the configurations addressed by the group, where different quantum dynamical aspects of light-matter interaction are identified and studied.

During the last years, the main impact of this research has been in the field of optical nanoantennas and plasmonics, and more specifically, in the role of quantum effects in the optoelectronic response of metallic nanosystems and molecular entities located within those plasmonic nanocavities.
