Techniques measuring Maxwell displacement current (MDC) and LB films surface measuring technique have been applied to the study of monolayers of polyamic acid containing azobenzene. MDCs was generated from monolayers on the water surface by monolayer compression and expansion. It was generated when the area per molecule was about $103{\AA}^2\;and\;78{\AA}^2$ just before the initial rise of the surface pressure during the 1st and 2nd mixed monolayer compressions cycle, respectively. It was the maximum of MDCs appeared at the molecular area just before the initial rise of surface pressure in compression cycles, and we have found that the increase of aggregations causes the noticeable increase of the surface roughness.

$\prod$-A characteristics of N-docosylquinolium-TCNQ complex were investigated with the following variations. I> $\prod$-A characteristics with a variation of spreading amount. ii> $\prod$-A characteristics with a variation of barrier speed. iii> $\prod$-A characteristics with a variation of subphase temperature. An optimum surface pressure for a deposition of Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) layer was found to be a 40∼50 mN/m in pure water subphase (pH 5.4, $25^{\circ}C$).

It is well known that the metallophthalocyanine (MPcs) are sensitive to toxic gaseous molecules such as $NO_2$ and also chemically and thermally stable. Therefore, lots of MPcs are studied for the potential chemical sensor for $NO_2$ gas using quartz crystal microbalance(QCM) or electrical conductivity. In this study, thin films of octa(2-ethylhexyloxy) copper-phthalocyanine were prepared by Langmuir-Blodgett method and characterized by using UV-VIS spectrascopy and ellipsometry. Transfer condition, film characterization, and preliminary results of current-voltage(I-V) characteristics of these films exposed to $NO_2$ gas as a function of film thickness will be discussed.

In this paper, poly (N-(2-4-imidazolyl) ethyl) maleimide-alt-1-octadecene (IMI-O) polymer which can complex metal ion was used to confirm the possibility of molecular device made by Langmuir-Blodgett method. Metal/Insulator/Metal (MIM) device was fabricated for investigation of electric properties. In the ${\pi}$-A isotherm, surface pressure at collapse point was different as to the molecular weight of metal ion complexed respectively, In I-V characteristics, currents of MiM devices were different at the same voltage. It was thought that phenomena was occurred by interaction between function group and metal ion.

We studied on the ultra thin DMPC by Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) method. The $\pi$ -A isotherm of the DMPC was measured at the air-water interface varying with the compressing speed and amounts of solutions for spreading. DMPC molecules have one phosphatidylcholine head group and two long alky groups with carbonyl group. Displacement currents generated during the compression of monolayers of DMPC on the surface of water were investigated. The molecular arrangement of deposited films were evaluated by measuring the absorption with the UVspectrometer. And we made structures of metal(Au)/DMPC/Metal(Au) and examined electron through DMPC LB films by means of current-voltage(I-V) measurement .

A study on the electrical conduction characteristics of the ultrathin organic films is one of the important factors for the development of molecular electronic devices. The Langmuir- Blodgett(LB) technique has recently been attracted interest as a method of the deposition ultrathin films. We hate fabricated N-docosyl N\`-methyl viologen-diTCNQ(DMVT) anion radical LB film and investigated the molecular orientation and electrical conduction characteristics. We have measured infrared transmission-reflection spectra. The alkyl chain is found to he well-ordered with the tilt angle of 13$^{\circ}$ with respect to the substrate surface normal and the TCNQ plane is tilted at 76$^{\circ}$ the surface normal. In ESR spectrum, we confirmed that a half-amplitude linewidth is clearly dependent on the incident angle, which indicates conducting species change. The in-plane conductivity of 31 lagers is approximately 1.33$\times$10$^{-6}$ S/cm. The ohmic behaviour was observed below 0.6 V, when current-voltage(I-V) characteristics was measured verically.

The orientation effect of galactose ligand on hepatocyte attachment was investigated. Poly(N-p-vinyl benzyl-o-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranosyl-D-gluconamide) (PVLA), a ${\beta}$-galactose-carrying styrene homo-polymer, was used as a model ligand for the asialoglycoprotein receptors on hepatocytes. PYVA was transferred onto the poly(${\gamma}$-benzyl L-glutamate)(PBLG) or PBLG/ poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG)/PBLG Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films as the monolayer level. The dichroic fluorescence values of confocal microscope indicated that the PVLA transferred onto the LB films was located with a preferential orientation of its molecular axes with regard to the direction of the a-helix of polypeptide. Hepatocyte recognized well-oriented galactose moieties of the surface of PVLA through asialoglycoprotein receptors.

Conductive Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films have recently attracted much interest from the viewpoint of ultrathin film conductors at the molecular level. The result shows that the Maxwell-displacement-current (MDC) measuring technique is useful in the detection of phase-transitions over the entire range of molecule areas. In this parer, electrical properties of PBDG Langmuir(L) films were investigated using a displacement current measuring technique with pressure stimulation. Displacement current was generated When the Spread volume $150{\mu}{\ell}$ and compression velocity was about 30, 40, 50 mm/min. In the result, it is known that current is generated of higher current peek as compression velocity become faster.

Polyimide is a well-known organic dielectric material, which has not only high chemical and thermal stability but also good electrical insulating and mechanical properties. In this research, we have synthesized a polyamic acid(PAA), which is a precursor of the polyimide. To obtain the optimum conditions of polyamic acid alkylamine salt(PAAS) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) film deposition, the ${\pi}-A$ isotherms were examined by varying subphase temperature, barrier moving speed and spreading amount of solution. Film formation was verified by measuring transfer ratio, absorption of UV/vis spectra and scanning electron microscope(SEM) images.
