Functional Thin Films by Layer-by-Layer Self-Assembly - presented by Dr. Yonca Belce, (IREC)

Nano-engineering is still a developing concept in materials science. Especially surface engineering mechanisms gain attention of several researchers due to its wide range of applicability. Layer-by-layer self-assembly is a versatile and environmental-friendly deposition mechanism for functional thin film coatings. Aqueous dispersions of nanoparticles, polyelectrolytes and macrocyclic compounds are well-known molecular candidates for LbL deposition. Nevertheless, in order to have controlled film properties in nanometer scale pH, concentration, deposition architecture and material distribution need to be precisely adjusted. Prepared multilayer coatings by LbL mechanism can demonstrate exceptional improvements in various application fields such as corrosion-protection and photodynamic therapy. Phthalocyanines and porphyrins are highly favored macrocyclic molecules in numerous areas due to their π-conjugated, delocalized electronic structures. Solar cells, photodynamic therapy, liquid crystals are only some of the functional utilization areas of phthalocyanines. In this study, various metalated phthalocyanine types and their derivatives have been used for homogeneous and uniform thin film formation via layer-by-layer (LbL) coating method for potential anti-corrosive and photodynamic therapy purposes.
