The OPTIS activity is mainly related to:
- synthesis of bulk optoelectronics materials, such as phosphate glasses doped with semiconductor nanoparticles, half metallic alloys, rare-earth or transition metal -doped glasses, etc.
- synthesis of organo-metallic materials
- thin film deposition (PVD and sol gel techniques)
- material / surface characterisation
