자기조립 단분자막 (self-assembled monolayers, SAMs)은 주어진 기질의 표면에 자발적으로 입혀진 규칙적으로 잘 정렬된 유기 분자막이다 (그림 1). SAMs의 제조에 이용되는 계면 활성제 분자는 그림 2에서 보여주듯이 세 개의 부분으로 이루어져 있다. 먼저 기질과 결합하는 머리 부분의 반응기, 규칙적인 분자 막 형성을 가능하게 하는 몸통 부분의 긴 알칸사슬, 그리고 분자 막의 기능을 좌우하는 꼬리 부분의 작용기로 나누어진다. 가장 간단한 작용기로는 알킬 그룹이 있으나 분자 막에 특수한 기능을 부여하기 위해서는 여러 가지 다른 그룹들 (예:NH$_2$, OH, COOH 등)이 이용되고 있다.

The molecular assembly of p-iodo-phenyl octadecyl ether (I-POE), p-iodo-phenyl docosyl ether (I-PDE) and a binary mixture of these two molecules on graphite has been studied using a scanning tunneling microscope. Each molecular system self-assembles on the graphite surface to form a stable monolayer with a head-to-tail configuration. For the binary system, the I-POE and I-PDE molecules do not mix on the surface, preferring instead to form isolated monolayer domains. Here, the I-POE molecules are preferentially adsorbed on the graphite surface, due to the effects of alkyl chain length and the functional group on the monolayer structure.

The lubrication characteristics of SAM(self-assembled monolayer) have been investigated according to the change of surface group and surface temperature treatment with FDTS(1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-Perflurodecyltrichlorosilane) SAM and OTS(octadecyltrichlorosilane) SAM in micro scale. From the experimental results, it was found that OTS SAM gets destroyed at $200^{\circ}C$ and stiction and fiction coefficient increased, but FDTS SAM was stable up to $400^{\circ}C$. Also, it was found that the friction coefficient of normal OTS SAM is lower than that of FDTS SAM, but stiction is vice versa. This work shows the importance of surface group of self-assembled monolayer to control the lubrication characteristics and thermal stability.

The tribological characteristics of FDTS (1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-Perflurodecyltrichlorosilane) SAM (self-assembled monolayer) and OTS (octadecyltrichlorosilane) SAM treated by high temperature annealing have been investigated from the viewpoint of stiction, adhesion and friction in micro/nano scale. From the experimental results, it was found that OTS SAM gets destroyed at 20$0^{\circ}C$ and stiction, adhesion and friction coefficient increased, but FDTS SAM was stable up to 40$0^{\circ}C$. Also, it was found that the friction coefficient of normal OTS SAM below 20$0^{\circ}C$ is lower than that of FDTS SAM in micro/nano scale, but stiction and adhesion is vice versa. This work shows the importance of surface group of self-assembled monolayer in dictating the tribological characteristics and thermal stability.

Ultrathin film of polyamic acid having benzene and sulfonyloxyimide moieties was prepared using the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique, and then photosensitive polyimide LB film was obtained by the thermal treatment of precursor polyamic acid multilayers at 200$\^{C}$ for 1 hr. The polyamic acid was synthesized by condensation polymerization under THF and pyridine cosolvent. All monomers and polymers were identified through elemental analysis, FT-IR and $^1$H-NMR spectroscopic measurements. The microarray patterning of photosensitive polyimide LB film on a gold substrate was generated with a deep UV lithography technique. The well-characterized monolayer of cytochrome c was immobilized on the microarray patterns using two different self-assembly processes. Physical and electrochemical properties of the self-assembled cytochrome c monolayer were investigated based on cyclic voltammetry and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Also, its application in bioelectronic device was examined.

The effects of molecular environments on photoisomerization of an azobenzene group were investigated using In-situ UV/Vis spectroscopy and optical anisotropy measurement technique. The reversible and repeatable photoisomeritation reactions of azobenzene were observed by irradiating the film containing 4-hydroxyazobenzene and by measuring absorption intensities of the characteristic bands of trans and cis isomers simultaneously. When the self-assembled monolayer with azobenzene groups was used as an alignment layer for a liquid crystal cell, the homeotropic alignment was induced due to their compact packing structures of azobenfene groups along the vertical direction of the substrate. By irradiating UV light on this cell, the trans-azobenzene groups change to cis-isomers through the photoisonlerieation and then resulting in the planar alignment of liquid crystal molecules.

In this paper, we demonstrated the orientation characteristics of liquid crystals using UV-treated FSAM as alignment layer. Moreover we confirmed the FSAM properties before and after UV treatment on indium tin oxide (ITO) glass substrates using physicochemical analysis. The hydrophobic property of the FSAM surface is change to hydrophilic through UV treatment. After UV treatment the LC molecules also were uniformly and horizontally aligned on the FSAM surfaces and the pretilt angle was obviously changed 90° degrees to 0° degrees. EO characteristic of TN cell which was fabricated with UV-treated FSAM was faster response time compare to conventional PI layer. The FSAM before and after UV treatment has a superior application potential as the LC alignment layer for LCD, potentially replacing the conventional polyimide layer.
