The Difference

Periodically birefringent thin films growing out of the isotropic phase of the banana-shaped liquid crystal 1,3-phenylene-bis (4-butoxybenzyldiamine) were investigated with polarized optical microscopy. The gown thin films of the periodic modulation of the birefringent index self-assembled by the banana-shaped LC molecules were attributed to the difference of the molecular composing structures. Further the driving forces of the banana-shaped molecular self-assembly were discussed.

Self Assembled

Thin films of manganese dioxide (MnO2) were prepared by self-assembly of MnO2nanoparticles directly unto nickel-coated poly(ethylene terephthalate) flexible films using the newly developed horizontal submersion process. The thickness of deposited thin films was controllable by the deposition duration. This horizontal submersion deposition process for thin-film deposition is relatively easy, simple, and cost effective. Effects of deposition duration and calcination temperatures on the microstructure and electrochemical properties of self-assembled MnO2thin films were investigated. Optimized MnO2thin films exhibited high charge capacity, good cycling reversibility, and stability in a mild aqueous electrolyte and are thus promising electrode materials for the fabrication of thin-film electrochemical capacitors.

Multilayer nanostructural thin films through a layer-by-layer spin self-assembly method were prepared using poly(p-phenylene vinylene)/montmorillonite. Sodium montmorillonite particles exfoliated into single sheets and cationic PPV precursor and such anionic MMT plates were spin self-assembled by electrostatic attraction. Self-assembled MMT layers blocked the penetration of oxygen and moisture and they reduced the photo-oxidation of the emitting material. Spin self-assembled films showed higher environmental stability and luminescence, and their PL spectra were somewhat different from that of bulk PPV films.
