METHOD FOR FORMING NANOWIRES AND ASSOCIATED METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING AN OPTICAL COMPONENT

摘要

The invention relates to a method for forming nanowires (nf) on the surface of a substrate (S) attached to a solid immersion lens, the method including a step of forming a catalyst element (P) on the surface of the substrate and a step of growing the nanowire (nf) using the catalyst element formed on the surface of the substrate (S), characterised in that the catalyst element is a metal nanoparticle (P) and in that the step of forming the catalyst element on the surface of the substrate comprises depositing the metal nanoparticle using a light beam focussed by the solid immersion lens on the surface of the substrate. The invention can be used in the field of microelectronics.
