pubmed:abstractText
A fatty-acid Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) monolayer ionically adsorbed to the substrate has been prepared by adopting ZnO-based conductor and pure water respectively as the substrate and subphase. Ionization of the fatty-acid molecules has been detected by infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IR-RAS), which is enabled by the condensed free electrons in the doped ZnO substrate. On the contrary, IR-RAS measurements have indicated that fatty-acid molecules transferred onto Au and indium-tin-oxide substrates from a pure-water surface are not ionized. In addition, it has been demonstrated that these ionically bonded fatty-acid monolayers protect the ZnO transparent electrode from chemical attack by NH(3) gas. Since the LB technique is a simple method applicable to a wide variety of materials, the present results may lead to a new way of obtaining functional organic-inorganic nanosystems.
