We are engaged in research into the optical properties of artificially created material systems. Modern nanotechnology opens up the possibility to specifically manipulate the arrangement and structure of natural materials down to the range of a few nanometers. Among other things, this scope for design makes it possible to adjust the optical material properties directly and in a targeted manner. In this way, new possibilities arise for the realization of optical elements and special holographic applications in the field of nano- and micro-optics.
