Plasmonics has been an active field of research for several decades now, but continues to evolve rapidly, both conceptually and technologically. This progress is reflected in a wide range of applications and in ongoing innovation across fields, including enhanced spectroscopy, subwavelength optics, biomedical sensing, energy harvesting, and plasmon-enhanced catalysis. In parallel, new directions such as quantum plasmonics, ultrafast and nonlinear plasmonic phenomena, and plasmonic metasurfaces are pushing the boundaries of nanoscale light鈥搈atter interactions. As plasmonic materials and architectures become increasingly sophisticated, the field continues to expand its impact on both fundamental science and practical technologies This special issue aims to capture the latest advances in the multidisciplinary field of plasmonics, encompassing both foundational research and emerging applications. We invite contributions that explore the broad scientific and technological implications of plasmonic phenomena across diverse domains. The issue will focus on, but is not limited to, the following key areas: Novel synthesis and fabrication methods for plasmonic and hybrid plasmonic-based nanostructures
