AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
This work includes the fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures as well as the investigation of their optical properties in the near-field and in the farfield. As expressed in the title of this thesis the focus lies in the subwavelength confinement and enha ...
The present thesis develops some specific aspects of digital holographic microscopy (DHM), namely the effect of shot noise on the phase image accuracy, the use of DHM in micro-tomography and in aberrations evaluation of a microscope objective (MO). DHM is ...
The evolution path of nanotechnologies moves through the domain of microscopy. Among all the kinds of imaging tools available today, optical imaging systems are of primary importance. When using optical imaging systems, we take profit of the information re ...

The optical response of a single-mode uncoated fiber tip to a 3D polarized field, including longitudinal components, is investigated. The 3D field is produced by an opportune superposition of TE and TM plane waves. The contribution of the different field c ...
We investigate the effect of defects in the metal-coating layer of a scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) probe on the coupling of polarization modes using rigorous electromagnetic modeling tools. Because of practical limitations, we study an ense ...
This thesis further explores the possibilities of scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) in both materials and life sciences. Two experimental SNOM setups were developed: one designed for infrared spectroscopy applications and the other for the imag ...
We report on advanced dual-wavelength digital holographic microscopy (DHM) methods, enabling single-acquisition real-time micron-range measurements while maintaining single-wavelength interferometric resolution in the nanometer regime. In top of the unique ...
We report computational and experimental investigations on injection and transmission of light in microfabricated fully Aluminum-coated quartz probes. In particular, we show that a selective coupling of either the HE11 or the TM01 mode can be carried out b ...
This thesis presents the development of a scattering scanning near-field microscope (s-SNOM) and investigations on the photoluminescence study of solid C60. The first part concerns setting up of such a scattering SNOM where a tuning fork with an attached A ...
In this paper, we present near-field optical images of nanostructures exhibiting an extraordinary transmission. These structures consist of annular aperture arrays engraved in a metallic film: they are quite promising structures for nanophotonics because o ...
