LB膜中NMOB分子构象的研究

利用DFTB3LYP/4-31G^*方法,对2-硝基-5-(N-甲基-N-十八烷基)氨基苯甲酸(NMOB)进行研究。计算结果发现,苯环的5位碳原子、氨基氮原子以及十八烷基链上与其最临近的两个碳原子所组成的两面角(D)约为90ⅲ时,NMOB有最稳构象,在NMOB自交替膜中,NMOB即以这种构象存在;而D=180ⅲ时,体系总能量较最稳构象高出31.57kJ/mol,这种构象存在于NMOB/花生酸镉(CdA)交替膜中,较小的能量差异使NMOB容易在两种构象之间进行转化,在NMOB/花生酸镉(CdA)交替膜中因受到花生酸直立构象紧密排列的诱导作用,NMOB分子以能量相对较高的构象存在。

A Novel Amphiphilic Push-pull Ferrocene Derivative: Langmuir-Blodgett Films and Second-order Optical Nonlinearity

We investigated Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films built from the mixture of an amphiphilic push-pull ferrocene derivative(P) and behenic acid. Langmuir films of P diluted by behenic acid exhibit a very good cohesion, and the mixed films can easily be transferred onto solid substrates. Linear dichroism UV-visible and IR spectroscopy measurements of the mixed LB multilayers confirm that the molecules(P) are oriented to the substrate. The nonlinear optical experiments on the mixed monolayer deposited on the CaF₂ slide showed that P displays efficient optical second harmonic generation(SHG) with a molecular hyperpolarizability (β)h, high as 6.0×10^-29e. s. u..     

Polyelectrolyte templating strategy for the fabrication of multilayer hemicyanine Langmuir-Blodgett films showing enhanced and stable second harmonic generation

Polyelectrolyte templating effectively suppresses the aggregation of cationic hemicyanine-based amphiphiles in monolayer Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films leading to enhanced and stable optical second harmonic generation (SHG). The current study explores the impact of different polyelectrolytes (salts of poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid), deoxyribonucleic acid, and carboxymethylcellulose) on the mode of formation of multilayer LB films of the hemicyanine amphiphile and their SHG response. Pressure-area isotherms and Brewster angle microscopy reveal the impact of the polyelectrolyte complexation on the Langmuir films. Transfer ratios observed during film deposition, supported by electronic absorption spectra and atomic force microscope images of the multilayer LB films, suggest that the polyanions influence the deposition sequence, leading to significant variations in the SHG. Carboxymethylcellulose is identified as an optimal template that induces favorable z-type deposition, leading to the formation of stable multilayer films. These films exhibit the expected quadratic increase of SHG with the extent of deposition; significantly the film response is very stable under extended laser irradiation. It is proposed that structural adjustments of the sandwiched polymer layer lead to the observed deposition sequence and film stability. Polyelectrolyte templating is demonstrated to be a simple and effective strategy for the fabrication of multilayer LB films to elicit efficient quadratic nonlinear optical response.

Chemically alternating langmuir-blodgett thin films as a model for molecular depth profiling by mass spectrometry

Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers of alternating barium arachidate and barium dimyristoyl phosphatidate are characterized by secondary ion mass spectrometry employing a 40 keV buckminsterfullerene (C60) ion source. These films exhibit well-defined structures with minimal chemical mixing between layers, making them an intriguing platform to study fundamental issues associated with molecular depth profiling. The experiments were performed using three different substrates of 306 nm, 177 nm, and 90 nm in thickness, each containing six subunits with alternating chemistry. The molecular subunits are successfully resolved for the 306 nm and 177 nm films by cluster ion depth profiling at cryogenic temperatures. In the depth profile, very little degradation was found for the molecular ion signal of the underneath layers compared with that of the top layer, indicating that the formation of chemical damage is removed as rapidly as it is formed. The resolving power decreases as the thickness of the alternating subunits decrease, allowing a depth resolution of 20 to 25 nm to be achieved. The results show the potential of LB films as an experimental model system for studying fundamental features of molecular depth profiling.     

Preparation and characterization of polyion-complexed Langmuir-Blodgett films containing an NLO chromophore

Polyion complexes formed by monolayers of quaternary ammonium amphiphiles containing the 4-nitro-4'-alkoxy azobenzene chromophore spread at the surface of aqueous solutions of a number of anionic polyelectrolytes were investigated. In general, pi-A isotherms were found to depend on the nature of the polyion present in the subphase, with monolayers of complexes involving polycarboxylates tending to exhibit larger limiting areas than those formed with polysulfonates or polysulfates. Monolayers of the polyion complexes can be transferred to hydrophilic solid substrates to yield Z-type LB films, although some peeling off for more than 10 layers is an impediment. X-ray reflectivity measurements indicate that relatively smooth and uniform films are obtained up to about 10 layers. Average layer thicknesses are, however, significantly smaller than extended molecular lengths, implying that the amphiphiles are strongly inclined from the surface normal. Polarized FT-IR measurements also indicate poor molecular orientation perpendicular to the surface. Preliminary SHG measurements for LB films of two systems, 12Q/CMC-Na and 12Q/PAA, confirm the presence of noncentrosymmetric out-of-plane chromophore ordering. Stable signals are observed for elevated temperatures up to 130 degrees C and for a period of 4 months at room temperature. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first report of stable SHG in LB films of polyion complexes.     

Spectroscopic consideration of the surface potential built across phthalocyanine thin films on a metal electrode

The nonlinear optical properties of tert-butyl phthalocyanine copper Langmuir-Blodgett (CuttbPc LB) films and vacuum-evaporated phthalocyanine copper (CuPc) films deposited on a metal surface were investigated by second-harmonic generation (SHG) spectroscopy. At the organic/metal interface, a space charge field is formed due to the presence of excess charge injected from a metal electrode to the organic layer. Since the Pc molecule has D4h symmetry, an inversion center is present and the optical SH process is not allowed under the electric-dipole approximation. However, the space charge field at the interface directly influences the symmetric structure of the electrons in the Pc molecule. We investigated the contributions of the surface potential to the SHG using Pc LB and vacuum-evaporated films deposited on aluminum (Al) and gold (Au) metal electrodes, where a distinctive difference in the spectrum for the Pc films on the Al and Au surfaces was observed. The contribution of the surface potential was revealed based on the resonant conditions of the SH process, taking into account the electric-quadrupole transition and dc-field-induced electric-dipole transition.
