Abstract
Cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) is a novel type of thermoplastic polymer gaining the attention of the scientific community in electronic, optoelectronic, biomedicine and packaging applications. Despite the benefits in the use of COC such as undoubted optical transparency, chemical stability, a good water-vapor barrier and biocompatibility, its original hydrophobicity restricts its wider applicability and optimization of its performances. Presently, we report on the optical and morphological properties of the films of COC covered with Ti in selected areas. The layer of Ti on COC was deposited by pulsed lased deposition processing. The Ti/COC film was characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy indicating that its transmittance in the visible region decreased by about 20% with respect to the pristine polymer. The quality of the deposited Ti was assessed with the morphology by scanning electron (SEM) and atomic force microscopies (AFM). The modification of the wettability was observed by the sessile drop method indicating a reduction of the native hydrophilicity.

Abstract
Polymer membranes are conventionally prepared using high-energy particles from radioactive decay or by the bombardment of hundreds of MeVs energy ions. In both circumstances, tracks of damage are produced by particles/ions passing through the polymer, and successively, the damaged material is removed by chemical etching to create narrow pores. This process ensures nanosized pore diameter but with random placement, leading to non-uniform local pore density and low membrane porosity, which is necessary to reduce the risk of their overlapping. The present study is focused on the use of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) foils irradiated by 10.0 MeV carbon ions, easily achievable with ordinary ion accelerators. The ion irradiation conditions and the chemical etching conditions were monitored to obtain customized pore locations without pore overlapping in PET. The quality, shape, and size of the pores generated in the micromembranes can have a large impact on their applicability. In this view, the Scanning Transmission Ion Microscopy coupled with a computer code created in our laboratory was implemented to acquire new visual and quantitative insights on fabricated membranes.

Abstract
Routinely, in membrane technology, the decay from radioactive particles or the bombardment of ions with MeV energy per nucleon have been employed for the production of narrow and long pores in membranes. Presently, the ion lithography is proposed to make the fabrication cost more affordable. It is prospective for the use of medium capacity accelerators making more feasible the fabrication of customized membranes. Thin polyethylene terephthalate foils have been patterned using 12 MeV O5+ ions and then processed to obtain good aspect ratio ion track pores in membranes. Pores of micrometric diameter with the following profiles were fabricated in the membranes: truncated cone, double conical, ideal cone, and cylindrical. Monitoring of the shape and size of pores has been attempted with a combination of Scanning Transmission Ion Microscope and a newly designed simulation program. This study is focused on the use of low-energy ions, accomplished in all laboratories, for the fabrication of membranes where the pores are not randomly traced and exhibit higher surface density and negligible overlapping than in membranes commonly manufactured. The good reproducibility and the ordered pore locations can be potentially utilized in applications such as microfluidics and organ-on-chip microsystems, where cells growing over porous substrates are used in simulation of biological barriers and transport processes.

Abstract
In the present study, graphene oxide foils 10 μm thick have been irradiated in vacuum using same charge state (one charge state) ions, such as protons, helium and oxygen ions, at the same energies (3 MeV) and fluences (from 5 × 1011 ion/cm2 to 5 × 1014 ion/cm2). The structural changes generated by the ion energy deposition and investigated by X-ray diffraction have suggested the generation of new phases, as reduced GO, GO quantum dots and graphitic nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, amorphous carbon and stacked-cup carbon nanofibers. Further analyses, based on Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry and Elastic Recoil Detection Analysis, have indicated a reduction of GO connected to the atomic number of implanted ions. The morphological changes in the ion irradiated GO foils have been monitored by Transmission Electron, Atomic Force and Scanning Electron microscopies. The present study aims to better structurally, compositionally and morphologically characterize the GO foils irradiated by different ions at the same conditions and at very low ion fluencies to validate the use of GO for radiation detection and propose it as a promising dosimeter. It has been observed that GO quantum dots are produced on the GO foil when it is irradiated by proton, helium and oxygen ions and their number increases with the atomic number of beam gaseous ion.

Abstract
This work describes the preparation of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) sponge with pore sizes of about 50 and 900 µm. The sponges synthetized by the sugar template process were embedded with graphene oxide (GO) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) previously produced by laser ablation in liquid. The suspension containing graphene oxide and gold nanoparticles were optically characterized by UV-ViS spectroscopy. The dispersion of the nanoparticles in the PDMS sponges was observed by the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The biocompatibility of virgin PDMS, PDMS filled with graphene oxide, and with graphene oxide and gold nanoparticles was studied for different types of cell cultures. This study has allowed us to confirm that the PDMS sponge is a good matrix for embedding AuNPs and has highlighted as the presence of GO hinders the aggregation of AuNPs avoiding the use of surfactant and allowing their use in biological applications.

Abstract
The electric properties of polymers are increasingly important in a wide range of applications such as sensors, energy storages, microelectronics, and filtration membranes among others. In this work, the effect of multi-energetic Au ion implantation on the graphene oxide (GO), polyimide (PI), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polylactide (PLLA) elemental, chemical, structural end electric properties is presented with potential application in 3D metal-dielectric structure synthetization. The three energies, 3.2, 1.6, 0.8 MeV of Au ions with fluence 3.75×1014 cm-2 were used in ascending or descending order to create two sample sets, which were subsequently analysed by RBS, ERDA, EDS and AFM. RBS analysis was used for Au-depth profile characterization in the implanted samples, the profiles agree reasonably with those simulated by SRIM code. Electrical properties were investigated by standard two-point technique with respect to the used parameters of the ion irradiation. The sheet resistance decreases after ion irradiation and it is evident that the ascending order of ion implantation energies has more significant effect on the conductivity enhancement compare to the descending one.

Abstract
Typically, polymeric composites containing nanoparticles are realized by incorporating pre-made nanoparticles into a polymer matrix by using blending solvent or by the reduction of metal salt dispersed in the polymeric matrix. Generally, the production of pre-made Au NPs occurs in liquids with two-step processes: producing the gold nanoparticles first and then adding them to the liquid polymer. A reproducible method to synthetize Au nanoparticles (NPs) into polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) without any external reducing or stabilizing agent is a challenge. In this paper, a single-step method is proposed to synthetize nanoparticles (NPs) and at the same time to realize reproducible porous and bulk composites using laser ablation in liquid. With this single-step process, the gold nanoparticles are therefore produced directly in the liquid polymer. The optical properties of the suspensions of AuNPs in distilled water and in the curing agent have been analyzed by the UV-VIS spectroscopy, employed in the transmission mode, and compared with those of the pure curing agent. The electrical dc conductivity of the porous PDMS/Au NPs nanocomposites has been evaluated by the I–V characteristics. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis have monitored the composition and morphology of the so-obtained composites and the size of the fabricated Au nanoparticles. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been used to determine the roughness of the bulk PDMS and its Au NP composites.

Abstract
In the present work, we propose the production of a hybrid graphene based material suitable to be laser irradiated with the aim to produce quasi-monoenergetic proton beams using a femtosecond laser system. The unique lattice structure of the irradiated solid thin target can affect the inside electron propagation, their outgoing from the rear side of a thin foil, and subsequently the plasma ion acceleration. The produced targets, have been characterized in composition, roughness and structure and for completeness irradiated. The yield and energy of the ions emitted from the laser-generated plasma have been monitored and the emission of proton stream profile exhibited an acceleration of the order of several MeVs/charge state.
