    Abstract: A method for producing a film of vanadium pentoxide nanowires having improved alignment is provided. The method comprises the steps of a) preparing a solution of vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) nanowires by a sol-gel method; b) diluting the solution of vanadium pentoxide nanowires with water and feeding the dilute aqueous solution into a Langmuir-Blodgett trough; c) adding a dispersant to the dilute aqueous solution of vanadium pentoxide nanowires; d) diluting a solution of a dioctadecyldimethylammonium halide with an organic solvent, applying the dioctadecyldimethylammonium halide solution to the surface of the dilute aqueous solution of vanadium pentoxide nanowires in the Langmuir-Blodgett trough, and allowing the solutions to stand to disperse the dioctadecyldimethylammonium halide solution in the Langmuir-Blodgett trough; e) controlling the surface pressure of the dioctadecyldimethylammonium halide solution using barriers mounted on the Langmuir-Blodgett trough; f) affixing a substrate to a dipping arm of the Langmuir-Blodgett trough and bringing the substrate into contact with the surface of the dioctadecyldimethylammonium halide solution; and g) separating the substrate from the dipping arm. According to the method, the alignment of the nanowires can be markedly improved by sol-gel synthesis, the need for subsequent washing can be eliminated, which contributes to the simplification of the production process, and the nanowires can be cut to desired lengths in a simple manner, thereby ensuring the reproducibility of a device using the nanowire film and achieving improved characteristics of the device. Further provided are a vanadium pentoxide nanowire film produced by the method and a nanowire device comprising the nanowire film. The nanowire device can find application in various fields, including field effect transistors and a variety of sensors, due to its excellent characteristics and reproducibility.

    Abstract: A method and an apparatus (10) for making thin layers from particles, wherein the particles are deposited on a carrier fluid flowing by gravity along a ramp (12) leading to a dam (18). The particles are held back at the bottom of the ramp (12), thereby causing the particles to be piled up one against the other in a monolayer configuration.

    Abstract: A molecule for Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition of a molecular layer. The molecule includes at least one switching moiety, a hydrophilicity-modifiable connecting group attached to one end of the moiety, and a hydrophilicity-non-modifiable connecting group attached to the other end of the moiety. The hydrophilicity-modifiable connecting group is transformable to a temporary end group upon adjustment in pH of the aqueous environment containing the molecule. The temporary end group is more hydrophilic than the hydrophilicity-modifiable connecting group and the hydrophilicity-non-modifiable connecting group. The difference in hydrophilicity between the temporary end group and the hydrophilicity-non-modifiable connecting group causes formation of a substantially well-oriented, uniform LB film at a water/solvent and/or water/air interface.

    Abstract: A method is provided for monitoring and controlling the deposition of multiple layer thin films using a broadband spectral monitor and a generalized model of the film. A design specification, including the number of layers and the material, refractive index, and thickness of each layer, is provided for the desired thin film. A target optical thickness is computed for the end point of each layer using correction factors based on the generalized model, preferably a single layer model, of the multilayer thin film. A monitor chip, such as a silicon substrate, is used for monitoring the multiple layers of film deposition. During deposition of the film, a broadband spectral monitor (BBSM) comprising a source of broadband light is directed onto the monitoring chip. Light reflected by the monitoring chip is received by a photosensor that provides a broadband reflectance spectrum to a computer. The BBSM reflectance spectrum is fit to the generalized model to produce an output corresponding to the optical thickness of the deposited film. When the broadband spectral monitor optical thickness measurement equals the target optical thickness at the end point of the layer, deposition of that layer is terminated and deposition of the next layer may commence. This process is repeated during the deposition of each successive layer until the entire multiple layer thin film is complete.
