By incoporating an anionic and cationic polyelectrolyte step by step the tendency of phase separation is increased drastically. The self-organization process can be regulated directly by varying the water content of the system.

A brief review is given of LMD investigations, including the author's own work on 2-dimensional (2D) polymer systems, providing chain scission data, which are not disturbed by simultaneously occurring transport phenomena, such as water penetration into the sample or transport of scission fragments out of the sample. A knowledge-based approach for the description and simulation of polymer hydrolytic and enzymatic degradation based on a combination of fast LMD experiments and computer simulation of the water penetration is briefly introduced. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of this approach are discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{StillerKarageorgievPerezetal.2000, author = {Stiller, Burkhard and Karageorgiev, Peter and Perez, E. and Valez, M. and Reiche, J{\"u}rgen and Prescher, Dietrich and Dietzel, Birgit and Brehmer, Ludwig}, title = {Scanning kelvin microscopy as a tool for visualisation of optically induced molecular switching in azobenzene self assembling films}, issn = {0142-2421}, year = {2000}, language = {en} }
