Subject

The internship focuses on the implementation of a near-infrared (IR) detection channel on a multiphoton microscope to study harmonic nanoparticles. Harmonic nanoparticles are noncentrosymmetric nanocrystals which have very rich optical properties and applications as nanoprobes for bio-imaging (1). Specific nonlinear optical processes such as four wave mixing will be studied in this wavelength range with a particular attention paid to the reliability of the measurements and the quantification of the various signals.
