Structure, morphology and interface properties of ultrathin SnTTBPP(OH)2-films adsorbed on Ag(100)

The molecular interaction of dihydroxo[5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-tert-butyl-phenyl)porphyrinato]-tin(IV) (SnTTBPP(OH)(2)), the structural order and growth of ultrathin films on Ag(100) have been studied by means of low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) and synchrotron based photoelectron spectroscopy, i.e., X-ray photoemission (XPS) and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS/XANES) spectroscopy. For the first time, monolayer adsorption of a metalloporphyrin with octahedral coordination of the metal center by two additional axial hydroxo ligands is investigated in a multi-technique study. The delicate balance of molecule-substrate interactions and intermolecular interactions leads to the formation of a densely-packed organic monolayer which is commensurate with the Ag(100) substrate. From NEXAFS linear dichroism an almost coplanar orientation of the porphyrin system is derived. XPS and NEXAFS clearly indicate that the axial hydroxo ligands are cleaved in monolayer films, i.e., upon adsorption to the Ag substrate. With increasing film thickness orientational order gets lost and leads to polycrystalline growth for thicker films as confirmed by scanning X-ray transmission microscopy (STXM).     

Interface geometry of Ag thin films supported at the MgO(1 0 0) surface: an ab-initio periodic study

In this Letter, the interface geometry of silver thin films of thickness T between 1 and 3 ML epitaxially deposited at the MgO surface has been accurately characterized employing DFT periodic calculations. The Ag–Ag out-of-plane interlayer spacing is considerably shorter than the bulk values because of: (i) the reduced dimension; (ii) the perfect epitaxy constraint; (iii) the interaction with the substrate. The interface distance between the silver monolayer and the MgO substrate, d(Ag–O) = 2.60 Å, is considerably longer than the estimates computed for the bilayer and the trilayer, d(Ag–O) = 2.47 and 2.48 Å, respectively. The difference between the values of the interface distance computed for the monolayer and the results obtained for thicker films, lies in the peculiar electronic properties of the silver monolayer.     

Fe(CO)5 thin films adsorbed on Au(111) and on self-assembled organic monolayers: II. Thermal transformations

The thermal transformations of as-deposited Fe(CO)(5) films adsorbed on Au(111)/mica and C(4), C(8), C(12), and C(16) self-assembled methyl-terminated monolayer organic surfaces have been studied using infrared spectroscopy to probe how the physical restructuring influences the sensitivity of these systems to low-energy electron beams. A companion publication shows that the as-deposited monolayers are composed of molecules physisorbed with one axial and two equatorial carbonyl groups directed toward the substrate; subsequent layers are preferentially oriented with the C(3) molecular axis aligned perpendicular to the substrate (i.e., one axial carbonyl group directed toward the substrate). In this work, we show that the as-deposited films are structurally unstable above 125 K on Au(111)/mica surfaces and above 100 K on the organic self-assembled monolayers. Above these thresholds, the layered structures transform into three-dimensional aggregates, implying strongly nonwetting behavior for Fe(CO)(5) on each of these substrates; molecular desorption from this aggregate structure takes place between 140 and 160 K. The irreversibility of this temperature-induced transformation demonstrates that the as-deposited layered films do not represent a thermodynamically well-defined phase; this key feature of the as-deposited films is believed to be the cause of the discrepancies in previous attempts to understand Fe(CO)(5)/surface structures based on infrared results. Moreover, the thermally induced transformation to 3D aggregate structures is shown to decrease the apparent sensitivity of the adsorbed Fe(CO)(5) to low-energy electron-induced decarbonylation (0-10 eV) by over 3 orders of magnitude.

Effect of pH on the control of molecular orientation in monolayer of bent-core liquid crystal materials by Langmuir–Blodgett method

Control of molecular orientation at the substrate surface is significant to understand the surface science. Langmuir films of bent-core liquid crystals having alkyl chains at both ends were deposited on silicon substrate. Studies were carried out on air–water interface by changing pH of the subphase. On compression, molecules were arranged in stacks at high pH where as uniform monolayer was formed at lower pH. Limiting area increased at low pH, which resulted in the formation of monolayer after attaining a sustainable surface pressure. Langmuir films were transferred to silicon substrate, and atomic force microscopy images showed appropriate height profiles.     

Interfacial assembly of a phospholipid Langmuir monolayer by electrodeposited silver colloids

Two-dimensional nanostructured silver films were electrodeposited at the surface of a silver nitrate subphase coated by a negatively charged dimyristoylphosphatidylglycerol (DMPG) Langmuir monolayer. The modifications of the phospholipid interfacial organization generated by the growing colloidal silver film were investigated using surface pressure-time isotherms and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction experiments (GIXD). A decrease in the initial surface pressure of the DMPG monolayer is observed outside of the growing silver film, followed by a stabilization of the surface pressure when the radius of the metallic layer reaches its plateau value. This behavior is attributed to the compression of the DMPG molecules above the silver film and to the correlated relaxation and expansion of those outside the silver film area as recorded by a Wilhelmy pressure sensor. GIXD experiments further evidenced the contraction of the phospholipid monolayer above the electrochemically growing films. Indeed, the diffraction spectra show a shift in the peak position toward higher values of the in-plane component of the wave-vector transfer, indicating a closer packing of the DMPG alkyl chains. This is also in agreement with the observed loss of the chain tilt angle, suggesting that the colloidal silver film induces interfacial structuring of the DMPG monolayer.     

Structural evolution of perfluoro-pentacene films on Ag(111): transition from 2D to 3D growth

The structural evolution and thermal stability of perfluoro-pentacene (PF-PEN) thin films on Ag(111) have been studied by means of low-temperature scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). Well-defined monolayer films can be prepared by utilizing the different adsorption energy of mono- and multilayer films and selectively desorbing multilayers upon careful heating at 380 K, whereas at temperatures above 400 K, a dissociation occurs. In the first monolayer, the molecules adopt a planar adsorption geometry and form a well-ordered commensurate (6 × 3) superstructure where molecules are uniformly oriented with their long axis along the <110> azimuth. This molecular orientation is also maintained in the second layer, where molecules exhibit a staggered packing motif, whereas further deposition leads to the formation of isolated, tall islands. Moreover, on smooth silver surfaces with extended terraces, growth of PF-PEN onto beforehand prepared long-range ordered monolayer films at elevated temperature leads to needle-like islands that are uniformly aligned at substrate steps along <110> azimuth directions.     

Characteristics of polypyrrole electrodeposited onto roughened substrates composed of gold–silver bimetallic nanoparticles

In this work, the characteristics of polypyrrole (PPy) films electrodeposited onto an electrochemically roughened gold substrate with bimetallic silver and gold nanoparticles were first investigated. First, a silver substrate was roughened by a triangular‐wave oxidation–reduction cycle (ORC) in an aqueous solution containing 0.1 M HCl. Subsequently, a gold substrate was roughened by a similar ORC treatment in this used solution. The results revealed that the surface of the roughened gold substrate demonstrated two different kinds of deposition domains because of the modification of silver nanoparticles. Encouragingly, some novel characteristics of PPy deposited onto this substrate were observed, in comparison with those on the roughened gold substrate without the modification of silver nanoparticles. They included a denser and more compact surface morphology, higher oxidation degree, increased conductivity, and improved surface‐enhanced Raman scattering. Furthermore, the nucleation and growth mechanism for PPy electropolymerization on this silver‐modified roughened gold substrate was distinguishable from that on the unmodified one. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Comparison of Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering Spectra of Two Kinds of Silver Nanoplate Films

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS) spectra of different silver nanoplate self-assembled films at different excitation wavelengths were fairly compared. Shape conversion from silver nanoprisms to nanodisks on slides was in situ carried out. The SERS spectra of 4-mercaptopyridine(4-MPY) on these anisotropic silver nanoparticle self-assembled films present that strong enhancement appeared when the excitation line and the surface plasmon resonance(SPR) band of silver substrate overlapped. In this model, the influence of the crystal planes of silver nanoplates on SERS enhancement could be ignored because the basal planes were nearly unchanged in two kinds of silver nanoplate self-assembled films.
