Fabrication of covalently attached ultrathin films based on dendrimers via H-bonding attraction and subsequent UV irradiation
Multilayer ultrathin films were obtained from phenolic shell-modified PAMAM dendrimers (G3.0) and diazo resin (DR) as building blocks via hydrogen bonding attraction using the deposition technique. Under UV irradiation, the nature of th linkage between layers converted from H-bonding to covalent, which increased the stability of the film dramatically.
