Abstract
Rapid progress of nanoscience and nanotechnology has made significant impact on many
academic disciplines and technical fields recently. In particular, nano-optics has become
one of the fastest growing areas in optics and optoelectronics with many exciting advances
published in a wide range of journals. This focus issue intends to provide a broad vision of
this emerging area with the inclusion of excellent review articles by internationally renowned
experts in the field as well as original contributions which cover the breadth of this new field.
The represented areas include quantum dots and nanowires, photonic crystals, silicon
photonics, vertical cavity surface emitting lasers, slow light and fast light, nano-particles and
nano-crystals, and guided optics. We would like to express our gratitude to authors of the
invited manuscripts to devote their precious time to write the illuminating articles and
reviewers for their thorough reading and helpful comments. Finally, we hope you will enjoy
the articles and find inspiration for your own work.
