To investigate the final structures and reactions of silicides a somewhat thick Ti monolayer Co monolayer and Co/Ti bilayer films were deposited on single Si(100) wafer by electron beam evaporation followed by heat treatment using RTA system in N2 ambient. TiO2 film formed between Ti and TiSi2 layers due to oxgen or moisture in the Ti monolayer sample. The final layer structure obtained after the silicidation heat-treatment of the Co/Ti bilayer sample turned out to be TiSi2/CoSi2/Ti-Co-Si alloy/CoSi2/Si sbustrate. This implies that imperfect layer inversion occurred due to the formation of Ti-Co-Si intermediate phase.

Fluorescence polarization of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) was used to evaluate the effects of chlorpromazine HCl on the range of the rotational mobility of bulk bilayer structure of the synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMV) isolated from a bovine brain. In a dose-dependent manner, chlorpromazine HCl increased the anisotropy (r), limiting anisotropy ($r_{\infty}$) and order parameter (S) of DPH in the membranes. Cationic 1-[4-(trimethylammonio)-phenyl]-6-phenylhexa-1,3,5-hexatriene (TMA-DPH) and anionic 3-[p-(6-phenyl)-1,3,5-hexatrienyl]-phenylpropionic acid (PRO-DPH) were utilized to examine the range of transbilayer asymmetric rotational mobility of the neuronal membranes. The anisotropy (r) of TMA-DPH in the inner monolayer was 0.034 greater than the value of PRO-DPH in the outer monolayer of the membranes. Both cationic TMA-DPH and anionic PRO-DPH were also used to examine the transbilayer asymmetric effects of chlorpromazine HCl on the range of rotational mobility of the membranes. Chlorpromazine HCl have a decreasing effects on the rotational mobility of the bulk bilayer structures and have a greater decreasing effect on the mobility of the inner monolayer as compared to the outer monolayer of the membranes. It has been proven that chlorpromazine HCl exhibit a selective rather than nonselective fluidizing effect within the transbilayer domains of the SPMV.

Selective quenching of 1, 6-diphenyl-1, 3, 5-hexatriene (DPH) by trinitrophenyl groups was utilized to examine the transbilayer fluidity asymmetry of model membranes of phospholipids (SPMVPL) extracted from synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMV). The polarization (P), anisotropy (r), limiting anisotropy $(r_\infty$), and order parameter (S) of DPH in the inner monolayer were 0.019, 0.014, 0.018, and 0.047, respectively, greater than calculated for the outer monolayer of SPMVPL. Selective quenching of DPH by trinitrophenyl groups was also utilized to examine the effects of n-alkanols on the individual monolayer structure of SPMVPL. n-Alkanols fluidized the hydrocarbon region of bulk SPMVPL and the potencies of n-alkanols up to 1-nonanon increased with carbon chain length. It appears that the potencies in bilayer fluidization increase by 1 order of magnitude as the carbon chain length increases by two carbon atoms. The cut-off phenomenon was reached at 1-decanol, where further increase in hydrocarbon length resulted in a decrease in pharmacological activity. The n-alkanols had greater fluidizing effects on the outer monolayer as compared to the inner monolayer of SPMVPL, even though these selective effects tended to become weaker as the carbon chain length increased. Thus, it has been proven that n-alkanols exhibit selective rather than nonselective fludizing effects within transbilayer domains of SPMVPL.

The layered organic-inorganic hybrid compounds($C_6H_5CH_2NH_3)_2CuCl_4$ and ($NH_3C_6/H_4C_2H_4_6/H_4NH_3)CuCl_4$ have been directly synthesized. From the X-ray diffraction data and the organic guest size, the orientation of the intercalated organic amine was determined. The inorganic sheets consist of $CuCl_4^{2-}$layers of comer-sharing octahedra copper chloride. The protonated organic amine was intercalated into the $CuCl_4^{2-}$layers with bilayer structure for ($C_6H_5CH_2NH_3)_2CuCl_4$ and monolayer structure for ($NH_3C_6/H_4C_2H_4_6/H_4NH_3)CuCl_4$.

The synthesis and characterization of intercalated compound of dodecanesulfornate into hydrated metal, [M($H_2$O)\ulcorner](C\ulcornerH\ulcorner$SO_3$)$_2$.$xH_2$O (M=Co, Cu) was presented. The compounds shows a layered structure which was determined by powder X-ray diffraction. Thermal behavior of the layered structure was investigated using thermal analysis, and FT-IR spectroscopy by varying the temperature. The increase in layer spacing of the products by increasing the temperature is also checked by X-ray diffraction. We can suggest three kinds of layered structure by varying the temperature, which is accompanied by changing the intercalated dodecanesulfonate from the monolayer to the bilayer structure or changing the tilt angle.

Selective quenching of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) by trinitrophenyl groups was utilized to examine the transbilayer fluidity asymmetry of model membranes of total lipids (SPMVTL) extracted from synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMV). The polarization (P), anisotropy (r), limiting anisotropy $(r_{\infty})$, and order parameter (S) of DPH in the inner monolayer were 0.031, 0.025, 0.033, and 0.070, respectively, greater than calculated for the outer monolayer of SPMVTL. Selective quenching of DPH by trinitrophenyl groups was also utilized to examine the effects of n-alkanols on the individual monolayer structure of SPMVTL. n-Alkanols fluidized the hydrocarbon region of bulk SPMVTL, and the potencies of n-alkanols up to 1-nonanol increased with carbon chain length. It appears that the potencies in bilayer fluidization increase by 1 order of magnitude as the carbon chain length increases by two carbon atoms. The cut-off phenomenon was reached at 1-decanol, where further increase in hydrocarbon length resulted in a decrease in pharmacological activity. The n-alkanols had greater fluidizing effects on the outer monolayer as compared to the inner monolayer of SPMVTL, even though these selective effects tended to become weaker as carbon chain length increased. Thus, it has been proven that n-alkanols exhibit selective rather than nonselective fluidizing effects within transbilayer domains of SPMVTL.

The electronic and magnetic structure of Fe overlayers on W(110) is determined by means of the all-electron local spin density full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method with a single slab approach. Charge and spin densities, magnetic moments, contact hyperfine fields, and layer projected density of states (LDOS) are presented. For bilayer Fe coverage, we find magnetic moments to be 2.90 and 2.30 ${\mu}_B$ for the surface and subsurface Fe layers, respectively, corresponding to a 18% enhancement of the total magnetization compared with the calculated bulk value (2.22${\mu}_B$);For monolayer coverage the moment is 2.56 ${\mu}_B$ which is enhanced by 16% compared to bulk. Unusual changes in the magnetic hyperfine interaction are found in going from a monolayer to a bilayer coverage. Comparison of the results to the theoretical ones of the clean Fe(110) to discuss the hybridization and the negative pressure effects. We discuss our results by comparing them to experimental results.

Irradiation of the metal nanoparticles causes local plasmon resonance in a specific wavelength band, which can improve the absorption and scattering properties of a structure. Since noble metal nanoparticles have better resonance effects than those of other metals, it is easy to identify plasmonic reactions and this is advantageous to find the optical tendency. Compared to having a particle gap or randomly arranged particle structures, densely and evenly packed structures can exhibit more uniform optical properties. Using the uniform properties, the structure can be applied to optical filtering applications. Therefore, in this paper, validation tests about metal nanoparticles and thin film structures are conducted for more accurate analysis. The optical properties of monolayer and bilayer noble metal nanoparticle structures with different diameters, packed in a uniform array, are investigated and their optical trends are analyzed. In addition, a thin film structure under identical conditions as metal nanoparticle structure is evaluated to confirm the improved optical characteristics.

Interfacial engineering approaches as an efficient strategy for improving the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of inverted polymer solar cells (iPSCs) has attracted considerable attention. Recently, polymer surface modifiers, such as poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) and polyethylenimine ethoxylated (PEIE), were introduced to produce low WF electrodes and were reported to have good electron selectivity for inverted polymer solar cells (iPSCs) without an n-type metal oxide layer. To obtain more efficient solar cells, quantum dots (QDs) are used as effective sensitizers across a broad spectral range from visible to near IR. Additionally, they have the ability to efficiently generate multiple excitons from a single photon via a process called carrier multiplication (CM) or multiple exciton generation (MEG). However, in general, it is very difficult to prepare a bilayer structure with an organic layer and a QD interlayer through a solution process, because most solvents can dissolve and destroy the organic layer and QD interlayer. To present a more effective strategy for surpassing the limitations of traditional methods, we studied and fabricated the highly efficient iPSCs with mono-layered QDs as an effective multi-functional layer, to enhance the quantum yield caused by various effects of QDs monolayer. The mono-layered QDs play the multi-functional role as surface modifier, sub-photosensitizer and electron transport layer. Using this effective approach, we achieve the highest conversion efficiency of ~10.3% resulting from improved interfacial properties and efficient charge transfer, which is verified by various analysis tools.
