Equipe: Chemical Physics and Dynamics of Surfaces

  Surface functionalization is essential for controlling important properties of materials. We are especially focused on developing highly controlled molecular layer on solid surfaces for adjusting electric and electronic properties. We are measuring the...

  In addition to their fundamental interest, soft interfaces play a major role in many applied devices through the influence they exert both on the surface properties themselves and on the organization of the...

2D materials are an emerging class of low-dimensional materials that are promise as being the building blocks for the next generation of miniaturized electronics and optoelectronics devices. Since the discovery of graphene, thousands of...

Since their initial use for colouring cups by the ancient Romans, a large number of amazing properties of nanoparticles related to their small size has been discovered and still continue to emerge. In our...

The team has a strong interest in functional materials with potential applications for electronics and optoelectronics. This includes nanocrystals (chalcogenides and perovskites), 2D materials and also organic molecules. Our research spans from fundamental science...

  Propagating surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) at the surface of continuous metallic films, and localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR) at metal nanoparticles or assemblies of nanoparticles, are known to induce peculiar effects, in particular...
