Abstract
Developing techniques able to fabricate micro and nanostructures at the surface of a material and on a large scale area is extremely valuable for fostering emerging applications in microelectronics, optics, biology and as a general view in nanoscience and nanoengineering. In this context, techniques combining near field optics and laser ablation are particularly promising [1,2]. Interestingly, optical field enhancements underneath a nanosphere monolayer can make possible ablation experiments with a periodic assembly of laser fields with lateral sizes that are below the diffraction limit. Besides, the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique has demonstrated its potential for the realization of controlled self-assembly on large surfaces [3].
