• µm is achieved in the lithographic process. The UV exposure time is found to be independent of the nanoparticle concentration. The fabricated silver nanocomposites exhibit high plasmonic responses suitable for the development of new optoelectronic and optical sensing devices. Keywords: functional

• photoresist; in situ synthesis; metal nanoparticles; micro and nanofabrication; nanocomposite; Findings Noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) have been of high interest for many years as their unique properties make them useable in a large variety of applications [1]. The application of these NPs ranges from
