Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to a process for modifying the properties of a thin layer ( 1 ) formed on the surface of a support ( 2 ) forming a substrate ( 3 ) utilized in the field of microelectronics, nanoelectronics or microtechnology, nanotechnology, characterized in that it consists of: forming at least one thin layer ( 1 ) on a nanostructured support with high specific surface ( 2 ), and treating the nanostructured support with high specific surface ( 2 ) to generate internal strains in the support causing its deformation at least in the plane of the thin layer so as to ensure corresponding deformation of the thin layer to modify its properties.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A substrate for microelectronics, nanoelectronics, or for microtechnology, nanotechnology, comprising: a nanostructured support on which is formed at least one thin layer in contact with a surface of the nanostructured support, wherein said surface of the nanostructured support comprises at least one layer of nanocrystallites and/or nanoparticles, and at least one dimension less than or equal to 1,000 nm, wherein the sum of the surfaces of each nanoc…
