  year      = {1998},
  abstract  = {Langmuir floating layers of two phthalocyanine derivatives, ytterbium bisphthalocyanine and tetra-tert-butyl nickel phthalocyanine, were investigated by means of compression isotherms, surface potential kinetics and Brewster angle microscopy (BAM) in order to study the influence of peripheral substituents on the structure and stability of these films and on their suitability for a subsequent transfer onto solid substrates. Specific substitutions that may lead to amphiphilic molecular units seem to play a key role in the development of well organised thin films prepared with this technique.},

  title     = {Stabilisation of fatty acid mono- and multilayers by simultaneous polyelectrolyte complexation and salt formation with cadmium ions},
  year      = {1997},
  abstract  = {The complexation of highly ordered fatty acid monolayers with polyelectrolytes is expected to yield well- ordered Langmuir films suitable for the formation of Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers with improved long-term stability. Studies of the surface pressure-area isotherms and of the surface potential kinetics yield detailed information regarding the influence of these polymeric counterions on the monolayer properties. The injection of bivalent metal salts into the subphase after the complexation was used to improve the order and stability of the mono- and multilayers. The corresponding Langmuir-Blodgett films were investigated by means of X-ray reflectivity measurements and scanning force microscopy. The polyion complex multilayers show a strongly increased mechanical stability compared with films of fatty acid salts formed with bivalent metal ions. These structures are expected to be suitable as ultrathin separation layer for gas separation or ultrafiltration membranes.},
