[…] The PhD work will consist in designing realistic structured materials (metamaterials) that can be
fabricated by self-assembly for PDRC. Various kinds of ordered and disordered arrangements of
silica microspheres and microfibers shall be considered. The exploration of the parameter space will
permit defining specific target materials that can be realistically fabricated by our soft-matter
collaborators, characterized optically by the PhD and compared to the simulated properties […]
