This book presents major results of the authors¿ work carried out on Langmuir monolayers and Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers. The authors reveal the richness hidden in these supposedly well-known systems, including saturated, aliphatic fatty acids. They examine the mechanisms behind the growth of monolayers and multilayers of the molecules primarily from a physicist¿s point of view. The book highlights the relationship between molecular structure and domain structure as well as the various physical properties. It also explores the interplay between physics and chemistry in metal ions.

Autorenporträt
Alokmay Datta is a senior professor at Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics in Kolkata, India, whose research interest lies in structure and dynamics at surfaces and interfaces of soft materials, nanomaterials, and biomaterials. He has been working on Langmuir monolayers and Langmuir-Blodgett films for more than 20 years. He has introduced several new concepts and techniques to the study of these low-dimensional, complex systems, which have helped in a revival of interest in them. Smita Mukherjee is currently a guest researcher at the Central Glass and Ceramic Research Institute in Kolkata, India, perusing her interest in inorganic-organic hybrid structures. She previously worked as a PhD research scholar at Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics in Kolkata, India, exploring the morphological, structural, and spectroscopic aspects of metal-organic systems at air-water and air-solid interfaces (Langmuir monolayers and Langmuir-Blodgett films). She continued her post-doctoral research in the interdisciplinary field of soft materials, including polymers, biomaterials, and complex metal-organic nanostructures, at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay and the Institut des Nanosciences de Paris in France.
