Langmuir−Blodgett film structure

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the current understanding of Langmuir-blodgett (LB) films from a physical/structural point of view, including discussions of the deposition process, the layered nature of LB films, intralayer molecular packing, defects, stability, and phase transitions.

Surface Order and Stability of Langmuir-Blodgett Films

TL;DR: Angstrom-resolution atomic force microscope images of Langmuir-Blodgett monolayers and multilayers of cadmium arachidate in air and under water show a dramatic change from a disordered arrangement to a crystalline lattice by the addition or removal of a single layer of molecules.

The structures of Langmuir–Blodgett films of fatty acids and their salts

TL;DR: Recent advances in several experimental techniques have enabled detailed structural information to be obtained for floating (Langmuir) monolayers and Langmuir-Blodgett films, which application to the study of films of fatty acids and their salts is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insoluble monolayers of weakly ionising low molar mass materials and their deposition to form Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss how the stability of the floating monolayer is affected by changes in pH, surface pressure and electrolyte addition and conclude that the film is roughly half-ionised.

Films Built by Depositing Successive Monomolecular Layers on a Solid Surface

TL;DR: Arbor as mentioned in this paper showed that xanthone and lluorenone possess new bands in sulfuric acid sohtions which are associated with the stabilization of the quinonoid structure for these compounds.

Ellipsometry of Anisotropic Films

TL;DR: In this article, the optical behavior of thin films adsorbed on a polished solid surface is extended by allowing for uniaxial anisotropy in the adsorbate.

Molecular constitution of X- and Y-type Langmuir-Blodgett films

TL;DR: In this paper, a thermodynamic theory was developed relating the X-type character to two energy terms, the main one reading: ϵ tail end/tail end − ϵtail end/water + ϵhead/water − ϴ head/head.
