The film stability was greatly improved and the molecular aggregation was effectively prevented by the strong ionic bonding character on the SAM-LB interface, which was evidenced by both contact-angle titration, RA-FTIR and AFM. The reversible tran/cis isomerization and the clear-cut electrochemical response of cis-azobenzene were observed in the presence of highly organized molecular assemblies. This enable us to carry out a kinetic study of the cis-azobenzene in highly organized monolayers, by which a "more" reversible and unique pH dependent electron-transfer kinetic behavior of azobenzene was shown within the novel SAM-LB composite films.展开更多
