Advances in nanotechnology have led to the realisation of nanoscale photonic components that enable integration within electronic chips. Now the challenge is to make these components perform computing functions themselves, thus providing ultra-high operation speeds and reducing power consumption. This project will utilize the intensity dependent interaction of light with metal-dielectric nanostructures to establish new processing functions of the photonic components. Our research underpins integration of photonics in future generations of computers and enables novel applications in subwavelength optical imaging and sensing. This project will therefore strongly enhance the standing of Australia in the field of nanotechnology.

纳米技术的进步使纳米级光子元件得以实现，使其能够集成在电子芯片中。现在的挑战是让这些组件自己执行计算功能，从而提供超高的运行速度和降低功耗。本项目将利用光与金属介电纳米结构的强度依赖相互作用来建立光子元件的新加工功能。我们的研究为未来几代计算机的光子学集成奠定了基础，并使亚波长光学成像和传感领域的新应用成为可能。因此，该项目将有力地提高澳大利亚在纳米技术领域的地位。
