Construction of Millimeter-Wide Monolayers of Ordered Nanocubes as a Stain of "Wineglass Tears" Driven by the Marangoni Flow

| Zusammenfassung: | We constructed millimeter-wide monolayers consisting of tetragonally ordered BaTiO3 (BT) nanocubes through the liquid film formation caused by the Marangoni flow in a toluene-hexane binary liquid containing oleic acid. A thin liquid film containing BT nanocubes was overspread on a standing silicon substrate through the condensation of toluene at the advancing front after the preferential evaporation of hexane. Then, the oscillatory droplet formation like "wineglass tears" occurred on the substrate. Finally, two-dimensionally ordered BT nanocubes were observed as a stain of "wineglass tears" on the substrate after the liquid film receded through evaporation. The presence of a thin liquid film in the binary system is essential for the production of millimeter-wide monolayers on the substrate because multilayer deposition occurs without the formation of a thin liquid film in monocomponent systems. We improved the regularity of the ordered arrays of nanocubes by adjusting the liquid component and evaporation conditions |
