Monolayer formation and in-plane anisotropy of an amphiphilic block molecule
Coverage controlled monolayer nano-sheets with homogeneous height were fabricated by casting aqueous solution of amphiphilic rod-coil diblock molecule 1 on mica surface. The monolayer sheet was anisotropic, due to the asymmetric arrangement of the diblock molecule on Surface, confirmed by polarization-dependent fluorescence spectra.
