Abstract

Chapter 2 discusses the different preparation and characterization techniques that were used in this work. In the first section the focus is on the materials and the deposition techniques that were exploited. In addition the fabrication of nanostructured substrates is briefly discussed. The different techniques that were used to characterize the samples are subject of the second section.
