红外光谱研究聚硅氧烷侧链手性液晶及其单体的单层LB膜

一种聚硅氧烷侧链手性液晶P及其单体M的单层LB膜分别在11mN/m和8mN/m的表面压力下,从水汽界面成功地转移到在镀金玻璃片和氟化钙基片上。π-A曲线表明P及其单体M在水汽界面上单层膜的崩溃压力分别是35和11mN/m。红外透过和反射吸收光谱表明两者的生色团部分及烷基链部分倾斜排列在固体基片上,但其倾斜角不同。M比P有更大的倾斜角。同时,不论P或M其烷基链的轴向与芳香核部分的长轴方向并不重合。P的烷基链比M的烷基链更有序。

稀土夹心双酞菁铥的LB膜及其光谱特性

采用表面压-面积(π～A)等温曲线和紫外-可见吸收光谱研究了稀土夹心双酞菁铥(TmPc2)分子在Langmuir膜及其Langmuir-Blodgett(LB)膜中分子的排列状态和光谱特性。发现TmPc2分子在纯膜中以edge-on方式面对面的排列,在与花生酸(AA)的混合膜中TmPc2分子以face-on方式平躺排列。纯的TmPc2分子在亚相表面可以形成稳定的Langmuir膜,但不易转移到固体基片上,加入花生酸混合后不仅可以在亚相表面形成稳定的Langmuir膜,而且可以较好地转移到固体基片上,制成多层LB膜。TmPc2氯仿溶液和LB膜的紫外-可见吸收光谱具有明显的Soret吸收带和Q吸收带,Soret吸收带有2个吸收峰,分别对应184—187*和178—186的轨道电子跃迁。而Q吸收带有4个吸收峰,分别对应于186—189*,190*和185—187*,188*的轨道电子跃迁。由于分子间的相互作用,TmPc2分子在LB膜中紫外-可见吸收谱的各个吸收峰与氯仿溶液中的吸收峰相比较都发生了红移。层内分子的相互作用比层间分子的相互作用强。

一种可溶喹吖啶酮衍生物LB膜的光谱特性

采用表面压-分子面积(π~A)等温曲线、紫外-可见吸收谱和荧光光谱的方法研究了一种喹吖啶酮衍生物材料LB膜的制备及其光谱特性。实验表明,这种喹吖啶酮衍生物能够在水面上形成稳定的单分子膜,它与花生酸(AA)混合后不仅可以形成很好的单分子膜,而且可以较好的转移到固体基片上制备成LB膜多层膜。这种喹吖啶酮衍生物LB膜的紫外-可见吸收谱的吸收峰位较稀溶液发生了红移,这是由极性溶剂分子与其相互作用的结果。其溶液有很强的荧光效应,但LB膜没有荧光现象,原因是在LB膜中QAC16的浓度过高发生“自我猝息”而失光。它在溶液和LB膜中都是以单体的形式存在。

Magnetic force microscopy studies of domain walls in nickel and cobalt films

A magnetic force microscopy is used to examine the domain walls in nickel and cobalt films deposited by argon ion sputtering. Thin nickel films deposited at high substrate temperatures exhibit coexistent Bloch and Neel walls. Films grown at room temperature display alternative Bloch lines with cap switches. These films agglomerate to form grains after annealed at high temperatures. The film composed of larger grains behaves better nucleation implying magnetic domains of closure, while the film composed of smaller grains exhibits more defects implying alternative Bloch lines. We have also observed domain displacements and cap switches, which occur due to precipitation of particles in small grain size films. Stripe domains are observed for film thicknesses larger than 100 nm. They become zigzag cells when an external field of 1.5 T is applied perpendicular to the surface of the films. This experiment indicates that the domain sizes in thin films and the strip widths for thick films both depend on the square-root of the film thickness, which varies from 5 to 45 nm and from 100 to 450 nm, respectively.     

The mica slit-pore as a tool to control the orientation and distortion of simple liquid monolayers

Grand canonical ensemble Monte Carlo computer simulations have been used to study mono-layer octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (OMCTS) and cyclohexane films confined between mica-like surfaces to determine the effect of the mica surfaces on the orientation and distortion of the films at different surface alignments. The film molecules are packed as a highly ordered lattice. The orientation of the lattice is fixed relative to the mica surfaces and depends on the size of the film molecule. Registry shifts distort the film lattice by effectively stretching it along a particular direction that depends on the size of the film molecule. For a particular registry, OMCTS and cyclohexane monolayers are stretched in perpendicular directions. Coupling between the monolayers and the mica surfaces generates a nonzero shear stress when the surfaces are out of alignment, but the film does not become disordered or melt. It is possible that precisely controlled solid surfaces could be used to create packed arrays of film molecules with desired orientation and degree of distortion that may be useful in nanotechnological applications.     

Stripe instability in thin films of smectic liquid-crystal polymers

Two-dimensional nanostripes are formed in thin films of side-chain liquid-crystalline polymer films when the material enters the smectic phase. The structure is investigated using transmission electron microscopy. Electron diffraction patterns show that the chain molecules are mostly aligned in the film plane and the average molecular director is parallel to the direction of the stripes. We discuss factors affecting the stripe amplitude and periodicity, such as the film thickness and the temperature of annealing in the nematic phase, and suggest a possible mechanism for their formation. We propose that an equilibrium instability occurs due to a competition between the layer-aligning effect of the substrate and the planar director alignment, forcing smectic layers perpendicular to the film surface. The stripes decorate the overall patterns of nematic director in the polymer film and provide a means of high-resolution imaging for observation of textures and disclinations.Received: 10 June 2003, Published online: 19 August 2003PACS: 68.37.Lp Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) (including STEM, HRTEM, etc.) - 61.30.Vx Polymer liquid crystals - 61.30.Hn Surface phenomena: alignment, anchoring, anchoring transitions, surface-induced layering, surface-induced ordering, wetting, prewetting transitions, and wetting transitions - 68.55.Nq Composition and phase identification

Study of glucose oxidase–l-α-lecithin Langmuir film formation on air–water interface

The present paper describes the formation of glucose oxidase (GOx)–l-α-lecithin Langmuir film on air–water interface by spreading GOx solution directly onto subphase covered with layer of lecithin. The optimum experiment conditions were obtained according to the experimental results. Two phase transition processes were observed under surface pressure ranges of 8.0–11.0 mN/m and 15.0–30.0 mN/m, which represented the movement of GOx molecules under the lecithin layer and the reorientation of GOx molecules in the lecithin layer and/or expulsion of GOx molecules from the lecithin layer, respectively. The forces of GOx molecules that interacted with the lecithin layer were hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic force. An atomic force microscopy image of GOx–lecithin film deposited on Au (1 1 1) surface in optimal conditions gives evidence of well-ordered GOx molecules in the lecithin layer. As a target of this research, this work provides a new way to prepare biomimetic film and design glucose biosensors in future.

Absorption Spectral Study of Mixed Chiral Amino Acid Porphyrin Langmuir-Blodgett Films

Absorption spectra were performed on Langmuir-Blodgett films of a new chiral amino acid porphyrin (Py) and its mixture with stearic acid (SA). Vertical uniformity of the LB films has been demonstrated by the linear relationship between the absorbance and the layer number of films. J-Aggregates were present when the film was transferred at various surface pressures and at different molar ratios of Py and SA. However, no aggregation was present for the molecules in the adjacent monolayers. the observed optical absorption spectra of mixed films were markedly dependent on the combination of Py. When the molar ratio of Py was increased from 0.05 to 0.75, the absorption peaks of Soret and Q bands bathochromically shifted ca. 5.5 and 2.2 nm. When the deposited pressure was increased from 5 to 35 mN/m, the absorption peaks of Soret and Q bands bathochromically shifted ca. 3.7, 3.2 nm and 3.5, 2.2 nm for pure Py and 1:3 Py-SA mixed LB films, respectively. on a hydrophobic substrate, the LB films showed a red shift of ca. 4.5 nm for Soret band compared with that on the hydrophilic substrate owing to their different environments.     

Properties of barium hexa-ferrite thin films dependent on sputtering pressure

M-type barium ferrite thin films were deposited onto sapphire (0 0 l) substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. An ultra-thin layer about 20 nm was deposited and annealed before continuous deposition of the films up to 500 nm under different sputtering pressures: 0.2, 0.5, 0.8 and 1.0 Pa, respectively. It was found that the atomic ratios of Fe to Ba increased from 9.3 to 15.0 with the increase of the pressure. The films sputtered at all pressures have c-axis normal to the film plane by a four circle X-ray diffractometer, which is an improvement of the films directly sputtered on the substrate. Needle-like grains were formed on the surface of the films under higher sputter pressure with bubble domains, which is originated from high magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the film. Magnetic hysteresis loops recorded by vibrating sample magnetometer agree with them, where in-plane and out-of-plane loops of the samples prepared under high sputtering pressures are quite different, while they are almost identical of the samples under low pressures. The influence of the sputtering pressure was understood by that with the increase of the pressure, resputtering of the films was increased. Nucleation with c-axis normal to the film plane was deteriorated. Thus samples prepared under high pressure have more needle-like crystallites which have c-axis parallel to the film plane.

Orientation of hyperfine magnetic fields of α-iron films produced by laser deposition

Iron films were produced by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of iron in Ar gas and M?ssbauer spectra of these films were obtained at room temperature. The orientation of the hyperfine magnetic field was found to vary depending on the pressure of the Ar gas. Iron films produced at low Ar pressures exhibited magnetic fields parallel to the substrate surface. The magnetic field became increasingly perpendicular to the substrate with increasing Ar pressure. Collisions with Ar gas molecules reduced the translational energies of laser-evaporated iron atoms and thus the orientation of crystals formed on the substrate varied depending on the Ar pressure.
