Résumé

In this work, we report the fabrication of spheres-in-grating assemblies consisting of equally spaced parallel rectangular grooves filled with fluorescent spheres, by employing embossing and convective self-assembly methods. The developed hierarchical assemblies, when compared to spheres spin-cast on glass, exhibited a blueshift in the photoluminescence spectra, as well as changes in wetting properties induced not only by the patterning process, but also by the nature and size of the utilized spheres. While the patterning process led to increased hydrophobicity, the utilization of spheres with larger diameter improved the hydrophilicity of the fabricated assemblies. Finally, by aiming at the future integration of the spheres-in-grating assemblies as critical components in different technological and medical applications, we report a successful encapsulation of the incorporated spheres within the grating with a top layer of a functional polymer.
