Self-Assembled Dewetting as a Fabrication Platform for Photonics Applications

Fabien Sorin, Pierre-Luc Eloi Piveteau, William Nicolas Duncan Esposito, Louis Marie Philippe Martin-Monier, Bastien Schyrr

A novel fabrication method based on controlled fluid re-arrangement of thin amorphous optical glass film is leveraged to realize two large-area photonics metasurfaces: 1) a highly directional nanoantenna array (metareflector), and 2) a metagrating for inde ...

Prediction of Self-Assembled Dewetted Nanostructures for Photonics Applications via a Continuum-Mechanics Framework

François Gallaire, Fabien Sorin, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Pierre-Luc Eloi Piveteau, Louis Marie Philippe Martin-Monier

When a liquid film lies on a nonwettable substrate, the configuration is unstable, and the film spontaneously ruptures to form droplets. This phenomenon, known as dewetting, commonly leads to undesirable morphological changes. Nevertheless, recent works, c ...
