DESCRIPTION:IEEE AESS Boston Section Chapter (Region 1 Northeastern US)\, I
 EEE AESS Melbourne Section (Australia)\, and IEEE AESS Queensland Section 
 (Australia).\n\nNanophotonics is the science of light in small spaces — 
 confining electromagnetic radiation to volumes below the diffraction limit
 . Tricking waves to stay well-behaved on such small length scales is a har
 d task. In my lecture I will outline why it is worth doing\, focusing on t
 hree aspects — the enhancement of interactions between light and matter\
 , controlling light propagation at will via manipulating Snell’s Law\, a
 nd conversion of energy from the electromagnetic field to other forms such
  as chemical bonds or acoustic surface waves.\n\nVia a number of examples 
 from my research group over the years\, I will endeavour to give an overvi
 ew of the field and demonstrate how nanophotonics has an impact on all are
 as of science and technology where control over light plays an important r
 ole. I will present two application examples in more detail — a new form
  of high-density video holography\, and achromatic focusing over the whole
  telecommunication window with an integrated fibre-optic lens.\n\nSpeaker(
