Fabrication of Thin Oriented Organic Layers and Micropatterns by Zone Casting

Layer-by-layer fabrication of oriented porous thin films based on porphyrin-containing metal-organic frameworks.

We report the synthesis and characterization of two thin films (DA-MOF and L2-MOF) of porphyrin-based MOFs on functionalized surfaces using a layer-by-layer (LbL) approach. Profilometry measurements confirm that the film thickness increases systematically with number of growth cycles. Polarization excitation and fluorescence measurements indicate that the porphyrin units are preferentially orie...

Controllable fabrication of oriented micro/nanowire arrays of dibenzo-tetrathiafulvalene by a multiple drop-casting method.

A multiple drop-casting method of growing the ultralong dibenzo-tetrathiafulvalene (DB-TTF) micro/nanowire arrays has been developed which has the success ratio as high as 94%. This method enables the arrays with a length over a few hundreds of micrometers to locate between droplets with the definite orientation. The width of the micro/nanowires is controlled via tuning the concentration of DB-...

Fabrication of YBa2Cu3Oy Thin Films on Textured Buffer Layers grown by Plasma Beam Assisted Deposition∗

A new technique named plasma beam assisted deposition (PBAD) is proposed to grow in-plane textured yttria-stabilised zirconia (YSZ) thin films on polycrystalline metallic substrates as a buffer layer for deposition of YBa2Cu3Oy (YBCO) films. The in-plane texturing of the YBCO films obtained is decisively governed by that of the YSZ buffer layer on which the YBCO grows. Because of a reduction of...
