Molecular Self-Assembly of TiO2/Polymer Nanocomposite Films
Abstract
Multilayer ultrathin films composed of titanium dioxide nanosized particles and ionic polystyrene molecules have been fabricated on single-crystal silicon, quartz, and glass substrates by a novel molecular self-assembly process. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicates that the formed cationic TiO 2 particles adsorb only on negatively charged and not on positively charged surfaces. Contact angle measurements demonstrate that the water contact angle oscillates regularly in accordance with which molecules form the outermost layer of the films. A molecular-level ordered transparent film, up to 120 layers (60 bilayers) in thickness, has been obtained and characterized by UV−vis spectroscopy. It is also demonstrated that film transmission in the UV light range decreases progressively with an increasing number of the bilayers and negligible attenuation in the visible range.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
