Brewster angle microscopy(BAM) makes it possible to observe the monolayer states on the water subphase and the phase transitions from a gaseous phase via a expanded phase to a condensed phase. Also BAM can be used to observe the films on the solid substrate such as Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films. In this Paper Polyamic Acid Alkylamine Salts(PAAS) was used for forming L films and LB films and $\pi$-A isotherm showed pressure of each phase. We obtained BAM images as surface pressure increased. Images of LB films were compared with data from ellipsometry which was used to measure the film thickness. Images of both L films and LB films were analyzed with computer in the point of brightness.

It is well known that the state of existence of molecules on the surface of water changes during compression of the molecules. Electric methods, such as measurement of the surface potential or displacement current are also useful for investigating dynamic changes of molecular state on the water surface during compression. In this paper, We studied on the Bio thin film by Langmuir-Biodgett(LB) method. The Experiment method used displacement current, $\pi-A$ isotherm and BAM (Brewster Angle Microscopy). using the BAM, we can to the molecular orientation of monolayer on the water surface and directly see the morphology of the films on water subphase as well as that of the films.

It is well known that the state of existence of molecules on the surface of water changes during compression of the molecules. Electric methods, such as measurement of the surface potential or displacement current are also useful for investigating dynamic changes of molecular state on the water surface during compression and Transformation of molecular film occurs only usually in air-water interface, 2 dimensions domain's growth and crash are achieved. Organic thin film that consist of growth of domain can understand correct special quality of accumulation film supplying information about fine structure and properties of matter of device observing information and so on that is surface forward player and optic enemy using AFM one of SPM application by nano electronics. In this paper Langmuir (L) that is one of basis technology to manufacture of organic matter device using biology material PBDG that is kind of polypeptide that have biology adaptedness. The Experiment method used ${\pi}-A$ isotherm and BAM(Brewster Angle Microscopy), using the BAM, we can to the molecular orientation of monolayer on the water surface and directly see the morphology of the films on water subphase as well as that of the films.

Brewster angle microscopy(BAM) makes it possible to measure domains of Langmuir films. Especially, formation and phase transition of the PAAS Langmuir monolayers from a gas phase to a solid phase at the air-water interface were observed by the use of BAM. And also we observed the comparative images of films deposited at each phase. The UV/visible absorption spectra of this films showed molecular intensity and aggregation at each state. The electrical properties of this material were measured by current-voltage(I-V) characteristics.

We fabricated an IMI-O polymer containing an imidazole group that could form a complex structure between the monolayer and the metal ions at the air-water interface. Also. the monolayer behavior at the air-water interface and the surface morphology of metal-complexed Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films were investigated by using Brewster angle microscopy(BAM) and Scanning Maxwell-stress Microscopy(SMM). The difference in the BAM and SMM images between the pure water and the aqueous metal ions is attributed to the interactions of the copolymers with the metal ions at the interface and the consequent change of the monolayer organization.

This paper describes the thermally stimulated current(TSC) measurements arachidic acid(AA) and polyamic acid alkylamine salts(PAAS) LB film, which is a precursor of polyimide(PI). The measurements were performed from room temperature to about 250$^{\circ}C$ and the temperature was increased at a rate of 0.02 $^{\circ}C$/s linearly[4]. It shows that peaks of TSC are observed at about 80$^{\circ}C$ in the arachidic acid and about 80$^{\circ}C$, 160$^{\circ}C$ in the PAAS LB films. The DSC and TGA of PAAS, arachidic acid are measure. Monolayer phases on the water subphase such as Langmuir(L) films and the phase transitions from gas phase to solid phase via liquid phase are observed using Brewster angle microscopy(BAM). BAM is also used to observe the Langemuir-Blodgett(LB) films.

The derivatives of spironaphthooxazine gause photoisomerization when they are illuminate with UV light. We investigated the photoisomerization of spironaphthooxazine derivatives for holographic memory. Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films contain amphiphile spironaphthooxazine derivatives which can be applied in molecular devices by a change of molecular level energy and a refractive index. In order to investigate the photoisomerization of spironaphthooxazine derivatives at the air/water energy and a refractive index. In order to investigate the photoisomerization of spironaphthooxazine derivatives at the air/water interfaces, spironaphthooxazine derivatives with side alkyl chains were synthesized. The films of the spironaphthooxazine derivatives were characterized by the measurement of UV/vis spectroscopy, Brewster Angle Microscopy (BAM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The monolayers of the spironaphthooxazine derivatives mixed with stearic acid were stable at the air/water interface and visualized by the measurement of BAM. The spironaphthooxazine derivative monolayers on the glass surface showed the maximum efficiency of diffraction as 0.99% by the measurement of holography.

The trans and cis forms of N-alkyl-4-styrylpyridinium derivatives (CnSP: n= 4, 8, 12, 16) were successfully synthesized and purified. The derivatives of styrylpyridinium cause photoisomerization when they are illuminated with UV light. The pressure-area isotherms of CnSP and their derivatives were studied to reveal the effect of alkyl chain length. The photoisomerization of CnSP monolayers at the air/water interfaces was indirectly studied by measuring surface tension changes with photoirradiation on the water surface. The characteristics of CnSP were furthermore studied with UV-vis, surface pressure-area isotherms, surface potential-area isotherms, Brewster Angle Microscopy (BAM) at the air/water interface, and optical diffraction efficiency on the ultrathin films.
