The adsorption and aggregation of a selenacarbocyanine dye (3,3-disulfopropyl-9-methyl-selenacarbocyanine, SeCy) onto Langmuir monolayers of a series of gemini amphiphiles with different methylene spacers were investigated. When the monolayers of the gemini amphiphiles were spread on the dye-containing subphase, the dye could be easily adsorbed and aggregated onto the monolayers through the electrostatic and pi-pi interaction. The dye formed complexes with gemini amphiphiles and stacked as J-aggregates in all the transferred multilayers, regardless of the structure of gemini amphiphiles. However, the surface morphologies of the complex monolayers showed a significant dependence on the spacer length of the gemini amphiphiles and the temperature of the subphase. Nanorods were observed for the complex films with spacer lengths ranged from 4 to 10 methylenes. With the temperature of the subphases increased from 20 degrees C to 30 degrees C, aligned longer nanofibers were formed instead. Although both the gemini amphiphiles and the dye were achiral, strong circular dichroism (CD) signals were observed for the transferred complex films. However, the CD signals could be just opposite in different places of the transferred films, suggesting that a resolved enantiomeric micro/nanostructure coexisted in the films. On the other hand, for the complex film of the dye with the gemini amphiphile of two methylenes spacer, neither CD signal nor ordered surface morphologies were detected in any place of the film although the dye itself stilled formed J-aggregate in the film. It was suggested that regular nanoarchitectures and resolved chiral domains could be observed only when the spacer of gemini amphiphiles is comparative to the distance between the two SO3- groups in the dye.  相似文献

Organic/inorganic hybrid monolayers, consisting of an oval decatungstoeuropate (EuW10) with photoluminescence and a series of gemini-type amphiphiles with various lengths of the flexible hydrophobic spacers, were formed through electrostatic interaction at the air/water interface. The ultrathin hybrid multilayer films could be fabricated through the horizontal transfer of the monolayers onto the solid substrates. The characteristic absorption band of EuW10 in the UV spectra of the hybrid films showed a slight red shift in comparison with that in solution, indicating the ordered arrangement of EuW10 in the hybrid films. FT-IR spectra of the hybrid films presented characteristic bands of EuW10, indicating that the structure of the cluster was kept in the films. X-ray diffraction measurements of the films revealed that the well-defined layer structures were formed in these multilayer films and the EuW10 cluster ions were orientated with their short axis parallel to the film surface. Typical photoluminescence of the 5D0 --> 7F2 and 5D0 --> 7F1 transitions of EuW10 was observed in the hybrid films. Interestingly, the relative intensity of the two emission bands varied with the spacer length of the gemini amphiphiles in the films. A size matching between EuW10 and the gemini amphiphile with a hexamethylene spacer was observed, which showed the lowest ratio of the emission intensity of 5D0 --> 7F2 to that of 5D0 --> 7F1. Circular nanoparticles were observed in the AFM images for all these hybrid films. In addition, the size of the formed nanoparticles showed a dependence on the spacer length.  相似文献

A new series of gemini amphiphiles containing two Schiff base moieties linked by the poly(ethyleneamine) with different lengths were designed, and their interfacial assemblies were investigated. Condensed monolayers were obtained on nearly neutral subphase where the hydrophilic spacers were found to immerse into the subphase. On strong alkaline and acidic subphase, the headgroup and the spacer of the gemini amphiphiles underwent dissociation and protonation, respectively, resulting in the enlargement of the molecular areas. Flat and uniform domains were obtained for the monolayers from nearly neutral subphase; flower-like or dendritic domains were observed for the films transferred from strong acidic subphase. On the other hand, when an anionic tetrakis(4-sulfonatonphenyl)porphine (TPPS) was added into an acidic subphase, an in situ complex formation between the gemini amphiphiles and TPPS occurred. The complex monolayers were transferred onto solid substrate and TPPS existed predominantly as J-aggregate in the complex films. Due to the multisited positive charges in the spacer on acidic subphase, the complex films of gemini amphiphiles with TPPS appeared as short fiber or nanorod structures and formed two-dimensional (2D) conglomerate chiral domains.  相似文献

The aggregation of dyes is of considerable importance in relating to their functions and applications. In this paper, we have investigated the regulation on the aggregation and morphology of two cyanine dyes, 3,3'-disulfopropyl-4,5,4',5'-dibenzo-9-methylthiacarbocyanine triethylammonium salt (MTC) and 3,3'-disulfopropyl-4,5,4',5'-dibenzo-9-phenylthiacarbocyanine triethylammonium salt (PTC), using a series of gemini amphiphiles (bis(2'-heptadecyl-3'-ethylimidazolium)-1,n-alkane dibromide, abbreviated as Gn, n=2, 4, 6, 8, 10). It has been found that both of the dyes could be adsorbed onto the monolayers of the gemini amphiphiles through the electrostatic and pi-pi interaction and stacked into H- or J-aggregate. The spacer of the gemini amphiphile showed good control over the aggregation of MTC: H-aggregate was favored when gemini amphiphiles with short spacer were applied, while J-aggregation was preferred in the case of longer spacer. Only J-aggregate was observed for PTC on gemini monolayer, regardless of the structure of the gemini amphiphiles. Interesting morphologies were observed for all the gemini/dye complex monolayers. Network structure and nanofibers were formed for the gemini/MTC films transferred below the plateau surface pressure and close to the collapse pressure, respectively. The ability of the complex monolayers to form nanofibers strongly depended on the component amphiphiles, G2>G4>G6, and no nanofibers were observed for G8/MTC and G10/MTC after the collapse. Only squared domains were observed for gemini/PTC monolayers. When both G2 and G10 were mixed, an individual control of the gemini amphiphiles over the aggregation of MTC in the complex monolayers was observed. The relationship among the spacer, dye structure, and aggregation was revealed.  相似文献

Great interest has been devoted to the gemini amphiphiles because of their unique properties. In this article, we report some interesting properties of the interfacial films formed by a series of newly designed gemini amphiphiles containing the Schiff base moiety. This novel series of gemini amphiphiles with their Schiff base headgroups linked by a hydrophobic alkyl spacer (BisSBC18Cn, n = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10) could be spread to form stable monolayers and coordinated with Cu(Ac)(2) in situ in the monolayer. The alkyl spacer in the amphiphiles has a great effect on the regulation of the properties of the Langmuir monolayers. A maximum limiting molecular area was observed for the monolayers of the gemini amphiphile with the spacer length of hexa- or octamethylene groups. Both the monolayers on water and on the aqueous Cu(Ac)(2) subphase were transferred onto solid substrates, and different morphologies were observed for films with different spacers. Nanonail and tapelike morphologies were observed for amphiphile films with shorter spacers (n = 2 and 4) on the water surface. Wormlike morphologies were observed for gemini films with longer spacers of C(8) and C(10) when coordinated with Cu(Ac)(2). An interdigitated layer structure was supposed to form in the multilayer films transferred from water or the aqueous Cu(Ac)(2) subphase.  相似文献

Formation and aggregation of photolytic gold nanoparticles at the surface of chitosan (CTO) films have been investigated. When thin films of chloroauric acid salt of CTO were irradiated with UV light in wet air at room temperature for 10 min, gold nanoparticles of approximately 10 nm size are formed at the film surface. Detailed X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) study and field emission type scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) observation have been carried out to characterize gold nanoparticles at the film surface. The shift of Au(4f) peak to the higher energy side and broadening of full width at half-maximum in the XPS spectrum are the direct evidence of the existence of gold atoms and small clusters in the early stage of photolysis. According to FE-SEM observation, growth in the particle diameter and aggregation of nanoparticles were observed after prolonged irradiation, and, finally, the film surface was densely covered with gold particles of 20-100-nm size. Gold atoms and clusters could move in the film and precipitate to the irradiated surface. Chemical composition analysis further suggests that gold particles at the surface are covered with an ultrathin CTO layer, which is partly oxidized by oxygen and chlorinated by chlorine during photochemical reactions.  相似文献

A series of gemini amphiphiles with a pyridinium headgroup and rigid spacers were designed, and their interfacial assemblies with cyanine dyes, 3,3-disulfopropyl-9-methyl-selenacarbocyanine (SeCy) and 3,3-disulfopropyl-4,5,4',5'-dibenzo-9-methyl-thiocarbocyanine (MTC), through the air/water interface were investigated. Although the dyes have intrinsic tendencies to form J- or H-aggregates in aqueous solutions, their aggregation could be regulated in the complex films. Depending on the spacer, both J- and H-aggregates were formed for SeCy, whereas an H-aggregate with different absorption bands was obtained for MTC. Furthermore, the formed aggregates in the films could be reversibly switched by treating the complex films with HCl, NH3 gas, or water vapor. The J-aggregates of SeCy could be changed into H-aggregates and recovered through an alternative HCl/NH3 exposure in the films. The H-aggregate of the MTC film could be changed into J-aggregate upon exposure to HCl gas and subsequently put into air or NH 3 gas, and the thus-formed J-aggregate could be changed into H-aggregate under hot water vapor. In addition, such a reversible switch between different aggregates of MTC was only observed when the gemini amphiphiles with rigid spacers were applied. A possible explanation related to the protonation of the dye and the reorganizations in the film during the interconversion between different aggregates was proposed.  相似文献

Two series of gemini amphiphiles based on 2-heptadecylimidazole were designed. One is exo-BisImC17Cn (n=2, 4, 6, 8, 10), in which the positive charges are positioned on the outsides of the headgroups. The other is endo-BisImC17Cn (n = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10), whose positive charges are localized on the insides of the headgroups. The interfacial behavior at the air/water interface of these gemini amphiphiles was investigated in relation to the effect of the charge position and the spacer length. Monolayers of exo-BisImC17Cn show small differences in interfacial behavior when spread on water and aqueous Na2SO4 subphases. In contrast, significant distinctions were observed for molecules of endo-BisImC17Cn. The limiting areas of endo-BisImC17Cn monolayers on water are obviously larger than those on the aqueous Na2SO4 solution. While the limiting areas of the exo-BisImC17Cn monolayers increased monotonically with the spacer length, those of the endo-BisImC17C10 monolayer on Na2SO4 solution is obviously smaller than those of endo-BisImC17C6 and endo-BisImC17C8 monolayers, suggesting the wicket conformation of the alkyl chain in endo-BisImC17C10. On the other hand, both of the gemini amphiphiles could form complex monolayers with negatively charged TPPS at the air/water interface. The transferred complex multilayer films of the gemini amphiphiles/TPPS showed supramolecular chirality, although both of the gemini amphiphiles and TPPS are achiral. The exciton couplet was observed for the endo-BisImC17Cn/TPPS films, while no couplet was detected for the exo-BisImC17Cn/TPPS films. A reasonable comparison between the two series of geminis in relation to the effect of charge positions and the spacer lengths on the interfacial behavior and the supramolecular chirality was performed.  相似文献

In this work, self-sustained, biocompatible, biodegradable films containing gold nanostructures have been fabricated for potential application in nanobioscience and ultrasensitive chemical and biochemical analysis. We report a novel synthesis of gold nanoparticles mediated by the biopolymer chitosan. Self-supporting thin films are formed from the resultant gold-chitosan nanocomposite solutions and characterized by UV-visible surface plasmon absorption, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, infrared absorption, and Raman scattering measurements. Results demonstrate control over the size and distribution of the nanoparticles produced, which is promising for several applications, including the development of biosensors. As a proof of principle, we demonstrate that gold-chitosan films can be employed in trace analysis using surface-enhanced Raman scattering.  相似文献

Two methods for the synthesis of CdTe nanoparticles in zirconia sol-gel films are demonstrated. The nanoparticles were obtained by chemical reduction of Te(IV) using reducing agent (hydrazine) or tin chloride. Particle sizes ranging from 6 to 20 nm in diameter could be prepared by varying the experimetal parameters. The size and crystalline structure of the particles were characterized by optical absorption, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The film morphology was characterized by scanning force microscopy.The film obtained by SnCl2 method is smooth and homogeneous. The dense structure of CdTe nanoparticles of a few nm in diameter is revealed. The films prepared with hydrazine are porous as a result of evolution of the decomposition gaseous products during the reduction.Advantages and disadvantages of the two methods are discussed.  相似文献

Colloidal Au/Ag multilayer films were prepared by alternate assembly of Au nanoparticles with a size of 5 +/- 1.2 nm and Ag nanoparticles with a size of 10 +/- 2.4 nm by using 1,5-pentanedithiol as cross-linker. Nanoporous gold films with a ligament size of 26.7 +/- 4.6 nm were then prepared by selective dissolution of sacrificial templates of silver particles in colloidal Au/Ag multilayers. The complete dissolution of Ag particles in colloidal Au/Ag multilayers in a mixture solution of 3.0 mM HAuCl(4) and 3 M NaCl took place at room temperature without damage of the colloidal Au film. This method to prepare nanoporous gold films was further extended to the preparation of nanoporous gold nanotubes by depositing colloidal Au/Ag film on the inner wall of anodic aluminum oxides (AAO) followed by dissolution of colloidal Ag and removal of AAO templates.  相似文献

Gold nanoparticle and gold/semiconductor nanocomposite thin films have been deposited using aerosol assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD). A preformed gold colloid in toluene was used as a precursor to deposit gold films onto silica glass. These nanoparticle films showed the characteristic plasmon absorption of Au nanoparticles at 537 nm, and scanning electron microscopic (SEM) imaging confirmed the presence of individual gold particles. Nanocomposite films were deposited from the colloid concurrently with conventional CVD precursors. A film of gold particles in a host tungsten oxide matrix resulted from co-deposition with [W(OPh)(6)], while gold particles in a host titania matrix resulted from co-deposition with [Ti(O(i)Pr)(4)]. The density of Au nanoparticles within the film could be varied by changing the Au colloid concentration in the original precursor solution. Titania/gold composite films were intensely colored and showed dichromism: blue in transmitted light and red in reflected light. They showed metal-like reflection spectra and plasmon absorption. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis confirmed the presence of metallic gold, and SEM imaging showed individual Au nanoparticles embedded in the films. X-ray diffraction detected crystalline gold in the composite films. This CVD technique can be readily extended to produce other nanocomposite films by varying the colloids and precursors used, and it offers a rapid, convenient route to nanoparticle and nanocomposite thin films.  相似文献

The stepwise construction of a novel kind of self-assembled organic/inorganic multilayers based on multivalent supramolecular interactions between guest-functionalized dendrimers and host-modified gold nanoparticles has been developed, yielding supramolecular layer-by-layer assembly. The deposition process was monitored by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. Further characterization of the multilayer films was performed by means of UV/vis absorption spectroscopy, which showed a linear increase in absorption with the number of bilayers. The growth of the gold nanoparticle plasmon absorption band corresponded to approximately a dense monolayer of gold nanoparticles per bilayer. Ellipsometry and atomic force microscopy (AFM) scratching experiments were used to measure the development of the film thickness with the number of bilayers, confirming linear growth and a thickness increase of approximately 2 nm/bilayer.  相似文献

This article reports the effects of heating temperature and composition of nanoparticle multilayer films on the morphology, stability, and optical property of gold nanoisland films prepared by nanoparticle self-assembly/heating method. First, nanoparticle-polymer multilayer films are prepared by the layer-by-layer assembly. Nanoparticle multilayer films are then heated at temperature ranging from 500 °C to 625 °C in air to induce an evaporation of organic matters from the films. During the heating process, the nanoparticles on the solid surface undergo coalescence, resulting in the formation of nanostructured gold island arrays. Characterization of nanoisland films using atomic force microscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy suggests that the morphology and stability of gold island films change when different heating temperatures are applied. Stable gold nanoisland thin film arrays can only be obtained after heat treatments at or above 575 °C. In addition, the results show that the use of nanoparticles with different sizes produces nanoisland films with different morphologies. Multilayer films containing smaller gold nanoparticles tend to produce more monodisperse and smaller island nanostructures. Other variables such as capping ligands around nanoparticles and molecular weight of polymer linkers are found to have only minimal effects on the structure of island films. The adsorption of streptavidin on the biotin-functionalized nanoisland films is studied for examining the biosensing capability of nanoisland arrays.  相似文献

Gold nanoparticles linked to linear carboxylated dextran chains were attached to 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane-functionalized glass surfaces. This method provides novel hybrid nanostructures on a surface with the unique optical properties of gold nanoparticles. The particles attached to the surface retain the capability to aggregate and disaggregate in response to their environment. This procedure presents an alternative method to the immobilization of gold nanoparticles onto planar substrates. Compared to gold nanoparticle monolayers, larger particle surface densities were obtained. Exposure to hydrophobic environments changes the conformation of the hydrophilic dextran chains, causing the gold nanoparticles to aggregate and inducing changes in the absorption spectrum such as red-shifting and broadening of the plasmon absorption peaks. These changes, characteristic of particle aggregation, are reversible. When the substrates are dried and then immersed in an aqueous environment, these changes can be visually observed in a reversible fashion and the sample changes color from the red color of colloidal gold to a bluish-purple color of aggregated nanoparticles. Surface-bound nanoparticles that retain their mobility when attached to a surface by means of a flexible polymer chain could expand the use of aggregation-based assays to solid substrates.  相似文献

A general method for the generation of two-dimensional (2D) ordered silver nanoparticles (av 45 nm) ring array has been demonstrated via controllable self-assembly. The selective self-assembly is conducted on the edges of a gold coated polyelectrolyte film. This film is fabricated using the monolayer polystyrene (PS) spheres (av 600 nm) on a substrate as template, followed by depositing a positively charged polyelectrolyte and gold colloids (av 17 nm) via the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technique, and finally by eliminating the PS monolayer. This gold coated polyelectrolyte film has a regular pattern of sharp edges, and those edges are composed of abundant polyelectrolyte. This heterogeneous surface is easily prepared and universal for site-selective absorption of nanoparticles (silver nanoparticles in this paper, av 45 nm). This surface-guided self-assembly is powerful for fabricating micro/nanostructures on the edges of prepatterns. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to characterize the products.  相似文献
