| contents | Ce-induced effects on the self-assembly of arachidic acid Langmuir monolayers was studied in this work. The monolayers were formed on the liquid subphase in the presence of Ce(III) ions. A new type of structural configuration is found for such monolayers, in which the monolayer maintains its structural ordering despite being compressed beyond the collapse point. Instead of forming 3D aggregates as in the typical collapsed state, the monolayer appears to be corrugated. Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction and X-ray standing waves confirm these findings. The diffraction pattern for the monolayer in a new state is represented by the unclosed diffraction rings with maxima near the sample horizon. This diffraction pattern is quantitatively reproduced in the numerical simulations by assuming the corrugated monolayer. The details of the conditions under which these corrugated Langmuir monolayers were observed and the analysis of the diffraction data are described. |
