چکیده

Grazing-incidence x-ray diffraction measurements were carried out to observe the surface structure of [bmim][PF(6)]. At an incident angle of less than the critical angle, a diffraction pattern from 10 nm beneath the surface was obtained. A broad Debye-Scherrer ring was observed in the diffraction patterns, indicating that the [bmim][PF(6)] molecules near the surface are randomly orientated, similar to those in the bulk liquid. The distance of the nearest anions was estimated to be 4.2 A, which is very close to that for bulk [bmim][I], suggesting that the liquid structure of [bmim][PF(6)] is determined by the packing of the cation.

Ionic depletion at the crystalline Gibbs layer of PEG-capped gold nanoparticle brushes at aqueous surfaces

In situ surface-sensitive x-ray diffraction and grazing incidence x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (GIXFS) methods are combined to determine the ionic distributions across the liquid/vapor interfaces of thiolatedpolyethylene-glycol–capped gold nanoparticle (PEG-AuNP) solutions. Induced by the addition of salts (i.e., Cs2SO4) to PEG-AuNPs solutions, two-dimensional hexagonal lattices of PEG-AuNPs...
