Monolayers of lipids on a water surface have attracted much interest as models of biological membranes, but also as precursors of multilayer systems promising many technical applications. Until now, many methodologies have been developed in order to gain a better understand. Photoisomerization in monolayers of a novel azobenzene compound, azobenzene dendrimer, was investigated for the first time by means of the absorption spectrum and Maxwell displacement current (MDC) technique. Dendrimers are well-defined macromolecules exhibiting a tree-like structure, first derived by the cascade molecule approach. According to the absorption spectrum, trans-to-cis conversion ratio was estimated to the third generation of azobenzene dendrimer deposited onto a glass substrate. Temperature-dependent induced charge with trans-cis isomerization was also measured by means of MDC technique.

Kinetic behaviors of homoepitaxial growth on Ni(110) surface was studied at the growth-temperature ranges 290~380 K with scanning tunneling microscopy. At low temperature (~290 K), deposited Ni grows layer-by-layer mode in the first several layers with one-dimensional islands but eventually (at > monolayers) forms three-dimensional islands througy the kinetic shortening of the average length of one-dimensional islands. At the intermediat temperature (~340 K), the three-dimensional islands were observed to be I) regular mesa-like structure with high aspect ratio (~1:10) at ~15 monolayer, ii) hut-like structure with low aspect ratio (~1:1.5) at ~35 monolayer, and iii) rounded mound structure at ~55 monolayers, due to the competition of kinetic and energetic terms. At the high temperature (~ 380 K), the flat surface with layer-by-layer mode was observed up to 50 monolayers. Microscopic orgins for the observations will be discussed on the basis of kinetic Monte Carlo simulations.

A coverage of about 1 μm-sized pores of a membrane filter by four monolayers of maleic acids copolymers and poly(allylamine) (PAA) was attained by Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique through a covalent cross-linking followed a polyion complexation at the air-water interface. The copolymers were prepared to have side chains of hydrocarbon tail, carboxyl, and/or oligoether in the repeat unit. The surface pressure-area isotherms showed that the monolayers on an aqueous PAA have more expanded area than on pure water. The monolayers were transferable on a calcium fluoride substrate and a fluorocarbon membrane filter as Y deposition type, and the resulting LB films were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. A polymer network produced through interchain amide formation was confirmed in as-deposited films. The films were heat-treated in order to complete the cross-linking. SEM observation of the heat-treated film on a porous membrane filter showed that the four layer film was sufficiently stable to cover the filter pore of about 1 μm. Immersion of the film in water or in chloroform did not cause any change in its appearance on SEM and in FT-IR spectra.

The incorporation of metal ion into the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) film of an itaconate copolymer was investigated. The polymer was prepared via radical copolymerization of monooctadecyl itaconate with triethyleneglycol methyl vinyl ether. The metal ions employed were Na+, Cs+, Mg2+, Fe2+, Al3+, and Fe3+. The surface pressure-area isotherms indicated that all the monolayers studied on subphases with metal ions showed more expanded areas than that observed on pure water. The monolayers showed an irreversible collapse behavior. The collapse pressure of the monolayers was low on subphases containing trivalent metal ions. From the FT-IR spectra by reflection and transmission modes, the formation of carboxylate salts and the uprisen orientation of the pendant against substrate surface in the polymer LB film were determined. It was estimated by XPS measurement that ca. 13.1 repeat units of the polymer contain one Na+ ion, while one Mg2+ ion corresponds to 5.9 carboxyls.

The highly efficient photoelectric conversion of chlorophyll a (Chl a) monolayers and multilayers was investigated. Using the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique, Chl a monolayers and multilayers were fabricated onto optically transparent electrode, such as ITO glass. The photocurrent could be observed according to the light illumination. The action spectrum of the Chl a LB films was well consistent with its absorption spectrum. The possible application of the proposed system as a constituent of the artificial color recognition device was suggested.

자기조립 단분자막 (self-assembled monolayers, SAMs)은 주어진 기질의 표면에 자발적으로 입혀진 규칙적으로 잘 정렬된 유기 분자막이다 (그림 1). SAMs의 제조에 이용되는 계면 활성제 분자는 그림 2에서 보여주듯이 세 개의 부분으로 이루어져 있다. 먼저 기질과 결합하는 머리 부분의 반응기, 규칙적인 분자 막 형성을 가능하게 하는 몸통 부분의 긴 알칸사슬, 그리고 분자 막의 기능을 좌우하는 꼬리 부분의 작용기로 나누어진다. 가장 간단한 작용기로는 알킬 그룹이 있으나 분자 막에 특수한 기능을 부여하기 위해서는 여러 가지 다른 그룹들 (예:NH$_2$, OH, COOH 등)이 이용되고 있다.

Apical to basal transport of organic cations (OCs) such as tributylmethylammonium (TBuMA), triethyimethylammonium (TEMA). 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP), and berberine across Caco-2 cell monolayers was measured to elucidate the intestinal absorption of OCs. Basal to apical transport of MPP and berberine was larger than apical to basal transport and showed temperature dependency and concentration dependency. indicating that MPP and berberine are secreted into the inteslinal lumen.
