摘要

Direct imaging of ultrathin organic films on solid surfaces is important for a variety of reasons; in particular, the use of such films as ultrathin resists for nanometer scale fabrication and information recording requires the understanding of theirmicrostructure. However, few studies have been carried out because it is difficult to observe ultrathin organic films at the molecular level using conventional analytical methods. Recently, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy(AFM) have proved to be promising techniques for the microscopic characterization of the molecular structures of ultrathin organic films, including Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films due to their atomic level resolution. In the previous work, we have investigated the polyimide monolayer LB films by AFM, The polymer chain has directly been observed at a molecular scale. Additionally, it was found that the polyimide chains were always elongated and aligned in a two-dimensional LB system due to the inducing of dipping process, As an extension of this study, here we will report the investigations of another polymer (PMMA) LB films using AFM. Our AFM images demonstrate the further capability to reveal the surface morphology of polymer LB films and detailed molecular chain feature. The experimental results indicate that the PMMA polymer chain not only forms a long-range ordered orientation, but also twists on itself. As we know, this is the first time that the twisted chain structure in polymer LB films has directly been observed by AFM at a molecular scale.
