Titre: Metal nanoparticles and nanoclusters in polymer thin films: direct optical patterning and unveiling the optical properties
Abstract: In this thesis, we explore the direct formation of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) embedded within polymer thin films, aiming to understand the underlying mechanisms governing their growth, as well as investigating their linear and nonlinear optical properties. The work is structured into four parts
