ABSTRACT

The interaction of living and non-living matter at the atomic and molecular level has been utilised by scientists researching at the frontiers of knowledge to manipulate surfaces to obtain desired properties for specific applications. Nanoparticle thin films exhibit peculiar properties at the nanometre scale that are quite distinct from bulk properties and need much specialised tools for their characterisation. The interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter has been engaged over the years to study prevailing properties on the surfaces of thin films furnishing scientists with valuable information for various applications.
