The ALSACE 2019 Thematic School aims to provide an overview of major advances in nanocrystals that interact with their environment. It is intended for doctoral students, post-doctoral fellows, researchers as well as engineers and industrials wishing to place their research activity in the perspective of innovative materials while developing their network through new national and European collaborations.
Nanocrystals interacting with their environment represent an extremely active and constantly evolving research theme. This interdisciplinary field of materials science at the interface of physics and chemistry is stimulated by:
– new methods of synthesis both physically (epitaxy, ion implantation, atomic layer deposition, etc.) and chemically (soft chemistry, microwave, molecular exchange, CVD) and self-organization,
– new physical properties covering in particular magnetism (surface magnetism), optics (new frequency ranges, no flickering…), plasmonics (strong coupling…) or quantum devices (transport to an electron, single photon source).
– characterization methods (TEM, EELS, STEM, tomography, tomography, tomographic atomic probe, XRD, XPS, GISAXS, fluorescence, etc.) that are constantly evolving with the development of new nanometric and/or hybrid structures (sensitivity and chemical detectability, non-invasive characterization, etc.).
The following major themes will be addressed in the form of lectures and practical work in English:
- Nanocrystals / ligands-doping-impurity coupling
- Nanocrystals coupled to nanostructures
- Nanocrystals self-ordering and growth
- Multifunctional and Hybrid Nanomaterials
- Experimental techniques to investigate nanomaterials interacting with their environment
A poster session will be organized for each participant to present their work.
