LB chlorophyll monolayers (25 mN/m 1.4 nm2/molecule) on Pt electrodes showed low photoactivity, possibly caused by a quenching of excited states by the metal electrode or by total reversibility of electron exchange. Addition of electron acceptors, e.g., quinones, had no effect. The optically transparent tin oxide semiconductor electrode proves to be a much better subphase for the generation of photocurrents. Chlorophyll-coated Sn02 combined with a platinum electrode gave approximately 100 nA/cm. Similar results were obtained with photovoltaic systems of the form mercury droplet/buffer solution/chlorophyll a monolayer/electron acceptor monolayer/aluminum (Fig. 6.9.3). The quantum yield of such monolayer arrangements never exceeded 10" in any of these systems and is thus far away from competitive inorganic semiconductor cells (Norris and Meisel, 1989). 

Given the structure in Fig. 2.3 as a prototype of the monolayer arrangement of adsorbed water on kaolinite group minerals, there remains only the question of its single-particle properties. Proton and deuteron NMR measurements are instructive in this respect.As indicated in Table 2.1, NMR line shapes show whether a preferred orientation of water molecules exists on the NMR time scale, and NMR relaxation data can yield a value for the rotational correlation time, In the case of 10-A halloysite, the NMR signal from water protons or deuterons in the... 

The interlayer distance in the organo-LDH is about 2.98 nm, which resembles the value observed for DBS-modified LDH synthesized by other method [8]. The proposed scheme suggests a monolayer arrangement of surfactant anions in the interlayer region of the modified LDH by the one-step synthesis. The interlayer distance can be calculated... 

On the basis of the analysis of the IR spectra and the information gathered from the surface pressure isotherms, a model (see Fig. la) is proposed for the monolayer arrangement at the air/water interface [40] which imphes two sets of dimers of water per molecule of Chi a. One pair of dimers constitutes the water of the first kind and is composed of vapor-like dimers. The two water molecules are held together by a hydrogen bond, and on one side by a weak coordinate bond with the Mg atom of one Chl a molecule and on the other side by a weak hydrogen bonds with the 7t-electron network of another Chl a molecule. This kind of water is situated between the porphyrin planes of Chl a molecules and is easily removed from the monolayer. The second pair of dimers is composed of water of the second and third kinds situated between the...

Table 1.1 Thermal stability properties and desorption mechanisms of Si/organic monolayers arranged as a function of linkage and molecular structure. The desorption temperature is estimated as that corresponding to the removal of 50% of a given monolayer. The substrate designates atomically flat (111) and (100) Si surfaces or porous silicon (PSi).

From Fig. 5 describing the tridimensional arrangement of /8-keratin protein chains in antiparallel configuration (Pauling and Corey, 1951 Vandenheuvel, 1962, 1967), it is seen that chains in plane AA"BB" lie 10.5 A apart in plane ABCD the distance between chains is 4.73 A. In each case, the amino acid residues are 3.45 A apart. Each of these planes describes a monolayer arrangement of protein chains in the /8 configuration. In plane AA"BB" each residue occupies 10.5 x 3.45 = 36.2 A in plane ABCD this space is 4.73 X 3.45 =16.3 A. ...
