Abstract:

Molecular aggregates of rhodamine labeled phospholipid T1391 on LB films at different surface pressures have been investigated by optical spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Different types of molecular aggregates which show peak shifting and band broadening in the spectra were confirmed by the morphological AFM image. The rhodamine chromophores in the aggregates were suggested to orient at an angle of about 45 degree on the mica surface based on exciton theory and surface pleasure-area isotherm.
