This paper reports the π–A isotherm and spectroscopic characterizations of mixed Langmuir and Langmuir–Blodgett films of a nonamphiphilic thiophene derivative, namely, 2,5-Bis (5-tert-butyl-benzoxazolyl)-thiophene (BBOT) molecules, mixed with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and stearic acid (SA). The π–A isotherms and molefraction vs. area per molecule studies indicate some repulsive interaction between sample (BBOT) and matrix (PMMA or SA) molecules. At higher surface pressure in the SA mixed BBOT Langmuir monolayer, a phase transition occurs, which has been revealed by π–A isotherm studies. UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic studies confirm this phase transition and closer association of BBOT molecules. Spectroscopic studies of LB films lifted at higher surface pressure clearly confirm the presence of dimmers and higher-order n-meric sites.

ABSTRACTWe found that novel amphiphilic tetrathiafulvalene (TTF; 1) organized into supramolecular assemblies by the addition of electron acceptor 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7'f,8,8'f-tetracyano-p-quinodimethane (F4TCNQ) at the air-water interface. The assemblies on the air-water interface can be transferred onto the surface of mica and the morphologies of transferred films were investigated by AFM. The morphology of Langmuir-Blodgett films strongly depended on the ratio between 1 and F4TCNQ. Film of 1:1 mixture of 1 and F4TCNQ formed nanoscopic wires having an average dimension of 5.0 (height) × 70 (width) × 3000 (length) nm. On the other hand, the film of 2:1 mixture of 1 and F4TCNQ showed the mixed domains of wires and flat monolayers. Thus, the completely charge-transferred complex (1+)(F4TCNQ-) formed one-dimensional nanowires having a micrometer length. Room temperature electrical conductivities of cast film for 1:1 and 2:1 mixed layers of 1 and F4TCNQ were 2.4 × 10−4 and 8.0 × 10−5 S cm−1, respectively.
