dc.descriptionLangmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of nonamphiphilic 2-(4-Biphenylyl)-5 phenyl-1,3,4- oxadiazole (abbreviated as PBD) mixed with stearic acid (SA) as well as also with the inert polymer matrix poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) have been studied. Surface pressure versus area per molecule (-A) isotherms studies suggest that PBD molecules very likely stand vertically on the air-water interface and this arrangement allows the PBD molecules to form stacks and remain sandwiched between SA/PMMA molecules. At lower surface pressure phase separation between PBD and matrix molecules occur resulting due to repulsive interaction. However at higher surface pressure PBD molecules form aggregates. The UV-Vis absorption and Steady state fluorescence spectroscopic studies of the mixed LB films of PBD reveal the nature of the aggregates. H-type aggregates predominates in the mixed LB films whereas I-type aggregates predominates in the PBD-PMMA spin coated films. The degree of deformation produced in the electronic levels are largely affected by the film thickness and the surface pressure of lifting.
