Biography
Fabio Della Sala received his PhD in electronics engineering from University of Rome "Tor Vergata," Italy. He leads the theoretical and computational division of the National Nanotechnology Laboratory of CNR (Lecce), Italy. He is an expert in density functional theory methods, computational material science, organic and inorganic optoelectronics, and computational nanoplasmonics. In these research fields, he has authored more than 120 publications. In 2007, he was awarded the European Research Council Starting-Grant.
Stefania D’Agostino received her PhD in nanoscience from the ISUFI School, University of Salento, Italy. Her research interests include computational solid-state physics, nanoscience, photonics and molecular plasmonics. She is author of several publications in international journals. In 2010, she obtained a fellowship at the National Nanotechnology Laboratory of CNR, Lecce, Italy, and in 2011, a postdoc position at the Physics Department "A. Volta" of the University of Pavia, Italy.
"… provides a crystal-clear account of the subject area, in particular the growing area of molecular plasmonics … overall the topics are clearly presented. I would recommend this handbook f or a broad audience. It would be a valuable asset to any library."
