Summary on Grant Application Form
Neutron reflection will be used to give molecular level information about layers of amphiphiles (including)proteins) adsorbed at the solid / liquid interface. Interfaces with a range of surface functionality, some to mimic the surfaces of important technological materials, will be prepared using self-assembly techniques and in situ chemistry. To enhance the sensitivity of the neutron experiment the self-assembled monolayers will be partially and selectively deuterated.
