Prior to LB transfer, the surface pressure - molecular area (n-A) isotherms of dialkylsilane under various pH and temperature conditions were investigated. The pH condition of the subphase (water phase under the monolayer) is a crucial factor for the monolayer state. The condensed phase was formed directly without formation 

Although this is a very early example of the SAM/LB combination and was performed during the 1980s, this concept is still used by other researchers. In
