Ultrathin films of (Bi–Pb)–Sr–Ca–Cu–O (2223) were produced by ex situ RF magnetron sputtering on MgO (100) substrates. Films with different thermal treatments and thickness varying between 30 nm and 300 nm were obtained and studied systematically. A structural characterization of these samples was carried out and correlated with their electrical properties and thickness.

ABSTRACTIn this report, we describe our initial synthesis and characterization of mono-functional and bi-functional dibromoalkyl oligothiophenes to achieve amphiphilicity and telechelic functionality. Oligothiophenes are an important class of organic materials for opto-electronic devices and display applications. We have mono-functionalized oligothiophenes by the synthesis of a quinquethiophene bromoalkyl derivative. A bi-functional sexithiophene was derived primarily by the symmetrical coupling of terthiophene derivatives. Both were synthesized using Grignard coupling and lithiation reaction methodologies. UV-Vis, IR, NMR, MALDI-TOF-MS, and DSC confirmed the structure and physical properties of the oligomers. In addition, we have also synthesized an amphiphilic diamine derivative from the reaction of hexamethylenediamine with a bromoalkyl terthiophene derivative. Using photoluminescence, the photophysical properties of the oligomers were found to be that of typical oligothiophenes. Processing as ultrathin films for devices is currently being investigated.

ABSTRACTForward scattering of XPS and Auger electrons by atoms in a crystalline lattice produce beams of enhanced intensity radiating out from the surface at angles corresponding to the internuclear axes present in the top few atomic layers. This effect has been applied to analyze the mechanism of surface segregation in ultrathin metal films, to analyze the interdiffusion at the interfaces of ultrathin films, and to assess the effects of substrate contamination on the growth of epitaxial films. The systems studied in this work are Cu, Ni, and Co on Ni(100), however the purpose of this work is not to investigate these particular systems but to use them to illustrate the capabilities of forward scattering.

ABSTRACTNonlinear optical (NLO) ultrathin films of a preforrned asymmetric polydiacetylene have been fabricated by Z-type Langmuir-Blodgett film deposition from the air-water interface. Induced in-plane orientation of the polydiacetylene backbone on the substrates has been confirmed by UV/Vis, FT-IR dichroism, and degenerate four wave mixing (DFWM) studies. All the measurements indicate that the backbone is prefe rentially oriented along the dipping direction. Second harmonic generation study suggests that the LB multilayers form an asymmetric structure (Z-type) due to the accumulation of 2-dimensional ordered monolayer and the dominant induced second order polarization is in the plane of the film. The film morphology and molecular orientation have been investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM).
