In order to characterize the nature and the role of fine and colloidal particles (FCP) in subsurface environments, a time-monitoring of FCP from atmospheric deposition...

Colloids - e.g. nanoparticles in solution - are objects that exhibit original optical properties. Their use as building block for fabrication of subwavelength optical...

During this work, we were interested in the design of plasmonic particles for the control of the absorption and the emission of light. Our strategy was to synthesize...

Magnetic colloidal suspensions are used in numerous practical applications. However, their structural and dynamical properties are hardly known, particularly under an...

The colloidal speciation of some trace metal elements (Cu, Pb and Cd) was studied in the Penzé estuary (Western Channel, Brittany) over a seasonal cycle. This study...

The objective of this thesis was to study element speciation and migration in the boreal environments (Karelia and Central Russia). Specific goals were to i)...

Colloidal suspensions of spherical particles presenting hard-sphere like interactions is one of the simplest and most widely studied systems of soft condensed matter....

The local chromatin organization and the processes leading to its dense packing are still puzzling. We aim at understanding the role of local charges and ionic...
