Synchrotron X-ray Observations of a Monolayer Template for Mineralization
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 March 2011
Abstract
Mineral nucleation at a Langmuir film interface has been studied by synchrotron x-ray scattering. Diluted calcium bicarbonate solutions were used as subphases for arachidic and stearic acid monolayers, compressed in a Langmuir trough. Self-assembly of the monolayer template is observed directly, and subsequent crystal growth monitored in-situ.
