Abstract:
We discuss the nanophotonics elements and devices that are created or simulated in the IPSI RAS: photonic-crystal lens for coupling two planar waveguides; binary mikroaxicon for focusing light in the near field; heterostructure consisting of two diffraction gratings and the magnetic layer for rotating the plane of polarized light; heterostructure containing a diffraction grating and the magnetic layer for modulating light intensity with a magnetic field; radial binary diffraction grating with a metal film for focusing surface plasmon and dielectric microlenses above the surface of the metal film for focusing surface plasmon.

Key words: nanophotonics, photonic-crystal lens, binary mikroaxicon, diffraction nanoheterostructures, focusing of plasmons.
