São apresentados, neste trabalho, a produção pela técnica de fusão/resfriamento e a caracterização de vidros fosfato de silício dopados com trióxido de érbio 23 e/ou nitrato de prata 3, para a verificação da influência desses dopantes, quando adicionados à matriz hospedeira, nas propriedades térmica, ópticas e estruturais. As amostras foram submetidas a tratamento térmico e às técnicas de caracterização: Densidade, Índice de Refração Linear (IRL), Análise Térmica Diferencial (ATD), Absorção Óptica (AO), Fotoluminescência de Estado Estacionário (FL) e Fotoluminescência Resolvida no Tempo (FLRT); onde através delas e dos cálculos de Judd-Ofelt foi possível mapear características promissoras desses vidros para aplicações tecnológicas, com destaque em telecomunicação: transmissão de dados por fibras ópticas. / Phosphate glasses are technologically important materials due to their physical and chemical properties and can be applied in optical systems by co-doping with rare earth ions and metallic nanoparticles. In this work the production by melting and quenching technique and characterization of phosphate silica glasses doped with trioxide erbium and / or silver nitrate are shown, so that can checked the influence of these dopants, when added to the host matrix, in thermal, optical and structural properties. The samples were subjected to heat treatment and the characterization techniques: Density, Linear Refractive Index (LRI), Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA), optical absorption (OA), steady state photoluminescence (PL) and Time Resolved Photoluminescence (TRPL), where through them and Judd-Ofelt calculations, promising features of these glasses could be mapped for technological applications, especially in telecommunication: data transmission by optical fibers.

Dans ce travail de thèse, la synthèse de nanoparticules d'argent (Ag) est réalisée par une méthode simple, efficace et rapide basée sur la réduction du nitrate d'argent (AgNO3) dans un milieu organique (éthanol) sous chauffage par irradiation micro-ondes (MW) pendant quelques secondes en présence d'une émulsion aqueuse de copolymère latex. Les expériences ont été effectuées soit de manière séquentielle en faisant varier les paramètres expérimentaux les uns après les autres (approche classique) ou bien en moyennant la méthodologie des plans d'expérience qui sert à varier simultanément ces conditions expérimentales dans le but à la fois d'optimiser et d'évaluer l'impact de ces facteurs sur les propriétés physico-chimiques des particules produites. L'objectif est d'arriver à préparer un maximum de concentration en nanoparticules d'argent avec un minimum de concentration en copolymère latex et en AgNO3. Les nanoparticules préparées sont trouvées extrêmement stables en solution colloïdale avec des distributions de taille très étroites, ce qui confirme la qualité élevée et le diamètre uniforme des nanoparticules obtenues par l'approche de synthèse micro-ondes. Ceci pourrait être probablement dû à l'effet de stabilisation produit par les molécules du latex, qui est un bon environnement pour contrôler efficacement la croissance de nanoparticules métalliques d'argent. En tant que principal objectif d'une telle réalisation de la synthèse de nanoparticules d'argent par la méthode MW ouvre la voie à l'exploitation d'effets plasmoniques de surface dans des réactions photocatalytiques en utilisant des structures semi-conductrices bien définies (Bi2O3, In2O3, TiO2...). / In this thesis work, the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag) is carried out by a simple, efficient and fast method based on the reduction of silver nitrate (AgNO3) in an organic medium (ethanol) under heating by micro irradiation (MW) for a few seconds in the presence of an aqueous emulsion of latex copolymer. The experiments were performed either by varying the experimental parameters one after the other (classical approach) or by means of the experimental design methodology which serves to vary simultaneously these experimental conditions in order to both optimize and evaluate the impact of these factors on the physicochemical properties of the nanoparticles. The main goal is to prepare a maximum concentration of silver nanoparticles with a minimum concentration of latex copolymer and AgNO3. The prepared nanoparticles were found to be extremely stable in colloidal solution with very narrow size distributions, which confirms the high quality and the uniform diameter of the nanoparticles obtained by the microwave synthesis approach. This could possibly be due to the stabilizing effect produced by the latex molecules, which is a good environment for effectively controlling the growth of metallic silver nanoparticles. As the main objective of such realization of the silver nanoparticle synthesis by the MW method opens the way to the exploration of surface plasmonic effects in photocatalytic reactions using well-defined semiconducting structures (Bi2O3 , In2O3, TiO2 ...).
