Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The Langmuir films of a fullerene dicarboxylic acid derivative I, C60(HOOCCHNH2CHCOOH)CF3SO3H (FDA), at the air/water interface have been investigated. FDA formed a stable monolayer on pure water when dilute solution (1.04 x 10(-5) mol/L) was used as the spreading solution. The monolayer formation on various subphases was investigated, including solutions containing different monovalent (Na+, Ag+) and divalent (Ca2+, Cd2+, Cu2+) cations. The introduction of these cations makes the monolayer more stable. The limiting molecular area is also dependent on the pH of the subphase. The surface pressure versus area isotherms at different temperature clearly indicate that FDA molecules easily aggregate at high temperature. The monolayer and multilayer LB films of FDA were deposited on quartz and glass substrates from Ca2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, or Cu2+/Phen solution subphase, and their UV-vis and XPS spectra were obtained. The data showed that for Cd2+ and Cu2+/Phen subphase the cation can be transferred onto the substrates together with FDA but not the other two. The photoelectrochemical behavior of FDA on an ITO electrode was investigated, which showed that the photocurrent is cathodic. Oxygen and negative bias are beneficial factors for the photocurrent generation. The external quantum yield is ca. 4%. Copyright 1998 Academic Press.
