Formation Behavior

ABSTRACTThe Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) film formation behavior of the endohedral metallofullerene Dy@C82 was studied at the air/water and Ar/water interfaces. The LB film constructed at the Ar/water interface (2-4 layers) was found to be thinner and more uniform than at the air/water interface (4-6 layers). Particulate aggregates were observed in the LB films, which contrasts the extended wire networks formed by direct evaporation of the metallofullerene solution on a quartz plate. The UV-Vis absorption peaks are blue-shifted for the LB film deposited in air, which is attributed to the partial oxidation of the metallofullerene balls. They are red-shifted, however, for the LB film at the Ar/water interface presumably due to the interaction between the pristine metallofullerenes.

A series of novel copolymers [p (AOBHA-co-NPMA)] containing 2-Allyloxy-N-benzylidene hexadecylamine (AOBHA) as film formation material and β-naphtayl methacrylate (NPMA) as photosensitive group were synthesized by free-radical polymerization. The copolymers could form stable condensed monolayer at air/water interface and be transformed onto solid substrates. Positive-tone patterns with the resolution of 0.75 μm of the copolymers Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films with 35 layers were fabricated by deep UV irradiation, followed by developing with acetone. The etched gold patterns with resolution of 0.75 μm were also obtained, showing that the copolymer has enough resistance to wet etching suitable for fabricating photomask. The mechanism of photolysis was also investigated by UV and GPC, in which showed that the scission of main and side chain of p (AOBHA-co-NPMA) LB films occurred at the same time.

A series of novel copolymers poly (AOBDA-co-DNMMA)s containing 2-Allyloxy-N-benzyl- idene dodecylamine (AOBDA) and 1.4-dioxaspiro[4.4] nonane-2-methyl methacrylate (DNMMA) were synthesized. The copolymers could form stable condensed monolayer at air/water interface and be transformed onto solid substrates successively. Positive-tone patterns with the resolution of 0.75 μm of the copolymers Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films with 40 layers were obtained by deep UV irradiation, followed by developing in acetone. The etched gold patterns with resolution of 0.75 μm were also obtained, showing that the copolymer has enough resistance to wet etching suitable for fabricating photomask. The mechanism of photolysis was also investigated by UV, IR and GPC.

The rate at which a monomolecular film is deposited onto a solid substrate in the Langmuir-Blodgett process of preparing supported monolayer films influences the final structure of the transferred film. Attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopic studies of monolayers transferred to germanium substrates show that the speed at which the substrate is drawn through the air/water interface influences the final conformation in the hydrocarbon chains of amphiphilic film molecules. This transfer-induced effect is especially evident when the monolayer is transferred from the expanded region of surface-pressure-molecular-area isotherms at low surface pressures; the effect is minimized when the film molecules are transferred from condensed phases at high surface pressures. This phenomenon has been observed for both a fatty acid and a phospholipid, which suggests that these conformational changes may occur in a variety of hydrocarbon amphiphiles transferred from the air/water interface. This conformational ordering may be due to a kinetically limited phase transition taking place in the meniscus formed between the solid substrate and aqueous subphase. In addition, the results obtained for both the phospholipid and fatty acid suggest that the structure of the amphiphile may help determine the extent and nature of the transfer-speed-induced structural changes taking place in the monomolecular film.

AbstractA soluble, asymmetrically substituted polydiacetylene, poly(BPOD), has been reported to form stable monolayers at the air-water interface by the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique [2]. Preformed polydiacetylene has been deposited onto hydrophobic substrates as multilayers to form second order nonlinear optical thin films. Second harmonic generation was found to increase with the number of layers. From previous atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies backbone orientation along the dipping direction with an interchain spacing of about 5 A° was indicated [2].The film morphology and preferential molecular orientation of these LB films are further investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). A specifically tailored sample preparation method for the ultrathin LB films was used. Multilayer films were deposited on hydrophobic collodion covered glass substrates for this purpose. Electron diffraction was employed to study the crystalline organization of mono and multilayers of LB films as well as cast films.
