Lasers have completely changed many fields of science and our everyday life since their invention. They have transformed our understanding of atoms and molecules as well as the way we communicate with each other and store information. Today, lasers have become ubiquitous and can be found in every bar-code scanner and CD and DVD player. Meanwhile, the field of laser devices and their physics has continued to evolve and grow with many scientific and technological developments. In the past decade or so, the field of laser and photonic devices has taken a new leap forward with advances in fabrication technologies and material science. Today, features of the order of nanometers in size can be readily fabricated, which opens new opportunities to study the interaction of photons and electrons in micro- and nano-scale structures.

自发明以来，激光已经彻底改变了许多科学领域和我们的日常生活。 它们改变了我们对原子和分子的理解，也改变了我们相互交流和存储信息的方式。 今天，激光已经变得无处不在，可以在每一个条形码扫描仪和CD和DVD播放器中找到。与此同时，激光器件及其物理学领域随着许多科学和技术的发展而不断发展和增长。 在过去的十多年里，随着制造技术和材料科学的进步，激光和光子器件领域有了新的飞跃。 今天，纳米量级的特征可以很容易地制造出来，这为研究光子和电子在微米和纳米尺度结构中的相互作用开辟了新的机会。
