Plasmonic Nanomaterials and Metal Organic Frameworks for Air Sensing

We are developing optical chemical sensors combining two types of promising nanomaterials: plasmonic metallic nanoparticles, to benefit of their capacity to enhance local electric fields; and metallic organic frameworks (MOFs), porous materials tailored to capture specific molecules. This ambitious project, sponsored by the Innovation Defense Lab of the French Ministry of Defense, has put together […]
