Full textThis Thesis is centered on the development of new methodologies for creating nanopatterned surfaces, and their characterization in light of possible applications. A symmetric, amphiphilic diblock copolymer, polystyrene-b-poly(2-vinylpyridine) was self-assembled at the air-water interface to create an array of surface micelles. The Langmuir-Blodgett technique was used to transfer continuous films of ordered surface micelles to different substrates to be used as a sacrificial mask. Argon ion-milling of the block copolymer-coated substrates resulted in the high-fidelity pattern transfer of the topological features in the case of Au, Si/SiOx, and SiO2 substrates, and the generation of Au island arrays in the case of Si/SiOx, mica and quartz substrates coated with thin (10-20 nm) Au films. The wetting of water on the resulting nanopatterned surfaces was determined to be conformal (Wenzel-type) and the transition to non-conformal (Cassie-type) wetting is described. The extinction of light by the gold island arrays was measured and compared to calculations made using the quasistatic approximation to Mie theory. The response of the localized surface plasmon resonance of these arrays to alkylthiol adsorption and changes in the surrounding medium refractive index was measured and discussed with respect to creating a sensing scheme.

Full textSecondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) is probably the most widely used chemical analysis technique in semiconductor science and metallurgy because of its ultimate sensitivity to all elements, especially the lighter ones. With systems downsizing, high-resolution 3D chemical imaging is becoming a prerequisite for the development of new materials. In this thesis, we report the development and optimization of an innovative SIMS implemented in a scanning electron microscope. The equipment makes it possible to obtain elementary chemical mapping at very high resolution (~25nm). The capacity of the technique is demonstrated with the characterization at the nanometric scale on the one hand of metallic superalloys necessary for the manufacture of aircraft engine parts and on the other hand of chalcogenide alloys used in the latest generation phase change memories developed in microelectronics

Arterial stiffening as part of the natural ageing process is strongly linked to cardiovascular risk. Although arterial stiffening is routinely measured in vivo, little is known about how localised changes in artery structure and biomechanics contribute to in vivo arterial stiffening. This is mainly due to the limitation of the conventional mechanical testing methods. To circumvent this challenge, a novel nano-scale structural and mechanical characterisation technique, known as PeakForce Quantitative Nanomechanical Mapping (QNM) technique, was developed in a zebrafish model. Using the zebrafish vertebral column, the utility of the PeakForce QNM for probing small-scale biological samples and structures was validated, which paved the way to probe human artery and investigate the localised alterations in artery structure in vitro with arterial stiffening. Human internal mammary artery (IMA) was used as a model vessel for understanding the development of arterial stiffening in this thesis. This thesis focuses on the role of the tunica media and the outmost layer, the tunica adventitia, in arterial stiffening. Using the PeakFoce QNM, the hydrated and dehydrated arterial sections were tested that provided data on nano-scale changes in collagen fibril structure and mechanical properties in the hydrated media, dehydrated media and adventitia and showed how they related to in vivo stiffness measurements in the vascular system. The indentation depth for AFM measurement on the IMA tissues of 5 µm thickness were controlled at 20 nm and 5 nm in liquid and ambient conditions respectively and thus the indentation depth/tissue thickness ratio was 0.4% and 0.1% for the hydrated and dehydrated samples respectively. Furthermore, integrating the findings in this thesis with the proteome analysis data, the localised alterations in the collagen and ultrastructure were explained, and the in vivo arterial stiffening, nanomechanical and structural changes in artery biopsy samples were linked. This approach could be used to develop new diagnostic methods for vascular disease.
