Langmuir Blodgett Film

AbstractMolecular dynamics calculations have been carried out on a primitive model of a Langmuir-Blodgett film. The model consists of a patch of 151 molecules, each with a head group and a 19 pseudoatom tail, physisorbed on a planar substrate at room temperature. The aggregated patch is found to be a stable entity for the duration of the calculation (200 ps), with structural features similar to those found in previous calculations on a monolayer system which employed periodic boundary conditions but no explicit headgroup. Results are presented for the density distribution normal to the surface, the average chain tilt angle distribution and for the number of gauche defects.

Although cyclo[18]carbon has been theoretically and experimentally investigated since long time ago, only very recently it was prepared and directly observed by means of STM/AFM in condensed phase (Kaiser et al., <i>Science</i>, <b>365</b>, 1299 (2019)). The unique ring structure and dual 18-center π delocalization feature bring a variety of unusual characteristics and properties to the cyclo[18]carbon, which are quite worth to be explored. In this work, we present an extremely comprehensive and detailed investigation on almost all aspects of the cyclo[18]carbon, including (1) Geometric characteristics (2) Bonding nature (3) Electron delocalization and aromaticity (4) Intermolecular interaction (5) Reactivity (6) Electronic excitation and UV/Vis spectrum (7) Molecular vibration and IR/Raman spectrum (8) Molecular dynamics (9) Response to external field (10) Electron ionization, affinity and accompanied process (11) Various molecular properties. We believe that our full characterization of the cyclo[18]carbon will greatly deepen researchers' understanding of this system, and thereby help them to utilize it in practice and design its various valuable derivatives.
