About this position
This doctoral project focuses on the development and multimodal characterisation of gold microstructures fabricated by two-photon laser microfabrication for use in electrochemical sensors and plasmonic devices.
The PhD student will investigate the photoreaction mechanisms that lead to the formation of gold nanoparticles from new resins specifically designed for two-photon laser microfabrication. A major part of the work will be the development of a multimodal, multiscale characterisation strategy to connect the local nanostructure of the printed gold particles with the functional properties of the materials.
The research combines advanced nanoscale microscopy and spectroscopy with measurements at micro- and macroscopic scales. The project uses techniques such as AFM, AFM-IR, conductive AFM, KPFM and local electrochemistry to probe structure, chemistry, electrical conductivity and electrochemical activity. The student will examine how particle size, interparticle spacing and residual organic matter affect the electrical, electroactive and plasmonic performance of the fabricated structures.
The thesis is embedded in the ANR GOLDEN project and involves collaboration between the Institut de Sciences Analytiques and the Laboratoire de Chimie of the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon. The work will be carried out in a highly instrumented environment with state-of-the-art atomic force microscopy tools for chemical and electrical measurements, and in close interaction with specialists in microfabrication, advanced spectroscopy and materials chemistry.
