Abstract :
In this paper we review our recent advances in subwavelength plasmonic structures in linear and nonlinear regimes. We show several examples of subwavelength plasmonic devices in different configurations and schemes. We emphasize how these devices can be exploited for many applications, such as sensing, spectroscopy, photovoltaics and optical communications. Finally we will illustrate some challenges that are still open and need to be fulfilled.
