1)Mueller ellipsometry: Basic Principles, Instrumentation and Applications
  E. Garcia-Caurel, R. Ossikovski, A. de Martino( LPICM, Ecole Polytechnique, CNRS, France)
Enric GARCIA CAUREL: Resercher at Ecole Polytechnique since 2003.
Expert in Photonics, Polarization of light – Ellipsometry, Optical properties of materials and Optical instrumentation. He has developed three prototype polarimeters working in different spectral ranges such as the vacuum ultraviolet, the visible or the mid-infrared. His works include theoretical achievements related to the analysis of polarimetric measurements and decomposition of Mueller matrices. He also collaborates to the study and characterization of thin films used for photovoltaic energy production and for low-E windows.His works are interesting for the industry, and he has many contacts with different companies worldwide such HORIBA Scientific, Saint-Gobain or Safran. He has experience in technology transfer to industries and in the filing of patents. An example is the successful development and transfer of a complete polarimeter based in liquid crystal retarders, working in the visible and near infrared spectral range. This polarimeter is commercialized by the company Horiba Scientific under the name AutoSE.
At this moment he is working on the industrialization of a patented broadband spectroscopic Mueller ellipsometer working from the ultraviolet to the mid-infrared spectral range.
He has been involved in more than 5 French research projects, 1 European project. He is author of 2 patents and more than 50 communications to international journals and conferences. He has been invited to participate in 8 PhD dissertation juries. He is a regular reviewer of different international scientific journals such as Optics Express, Applied Optics, and Optics Letters. He is member of different scientific organizations: SPIE, Photonics21 and the French Optical Society. He also serves as Advisor of the local SPIE-OSA Student Chapter “Ecole Polytechnique – Paristech”.
2)Graphene and Plasmonics: the Nanoscale Challenges for Real-time Spectroscopic Ellipsometry
  Maria Losurdo(Institute of Inorganic Methodologies and of Plasmas, IMIP-CNR, via Orabona 4, 70126 Bari, Italy )
The improvement of technologies towards a more sustainable development and use of energy resources and devices has received an increasing interest worldwide in recent decades. There is consensus that this improvement needs corroborating materials synthesis and device fabrication processes with in-situ real-time characterization.
Elucidating the synthesis-processing-material-functionality interplay is also a key issue in fundamental science, necessary to advance basic knowledge of materials and to manipulate their properties at the nanoscale (i.e., moving towards the 2020 vision of “Materials on demand”).
Spectroscopic Ellipsometry has a long tradition in the science and technology of thin films and surfaces also in situ and in real time,
from which we can benefit for the analysis of materials at the nanoscale.
Therefore, this contribution overviews how spectroscopic ellipsometry, which is a non-destructive, nonintrusive, noninvasive, and contactless optical technique, has evolved into an efficient characterization tool for a large variety of systems ranging from stacked ultrathin layers to semiconductor nanocrystals and metal nanoparticles, and recently to
graphene-based hybrids.
It will include:
-an overview of the fundamentals, limitations, and strategies for the measurements and analysis of nanometric films, metal nanoparticles and semiconductor nanocrystals and periodic structures.
-examples of the applicability of ellipsometry in plasmonics, to understanding the growth of various metal nanoparticles, also in
core-shell configuration, as well as of novel nano-alloys, to tailor their localized surface plasmon resonance.
-examples of the exploitation of ellipsometry to optimize and understand CVD growth (using CH4-H2) of graphene on nickel (Ni) and copper (Cu) and establishing correlations between process kinetics and graphene thickness. It will be shown how the synergy with real-time ellipsometry monitoring allows to understand and improve critica steps in graphene CVD fabrication, including substrate preparation, carbon diffusion kinetics and the impact of the H2/CH4 ratio on CVD growth kinetics, thickness and structural and optical properties of graphene.
Finally, interface chemical and optical phenomena in hybrid nanomaterials created by combinations of graphene, metal nanoparticles, and self assembled monolayers of organic/bio molecules will also be presented, creating a connection to their applications in molecular electronics, photonic, electronic, optical, imaging, catalysis, sensing devices, photovoltaics, and energy savings and storage.
