1. Context
The development of new materials and the study of their physical and chemical properties is a particularly active field of research, linked to societal and industrial demands in health, environmental and information technologies. The dynamics of innovation in this field are based on technical advances in the elaboration and, above all, the structuring of materials, on the identification of new properties linked to size effects (nanoparticles, for example) and on the mastery of surface functionalization, with its corollary, the control of the stability of the interface created.
This aspect of functionalizing surfaces with organic thin films is absolutely essential in many applications, such as chemical or biochemical sensors, devices for optoelectronics, microelectronics, molecular electronics, protection against corrosion and "fouling" (packaging of microelectronic...
