Abstract
The specific self-assembly of Si/SiOx core-shell nanoparticles onto UV/ozon e micropatterned poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) films is reported here. Auge r and Raman spectroscopic mapping document the preferential Sii SiOx nanopa rticle adsorption within PDMS domains (see Figure). These nanoparticles dis play a high refractive index, which renders them potentially important for photonic bandgap applications.
