We hypothesise that the latest discovery of nanodomains on the air-water interface will be leveraged to nano-functionalize surfaces via casting with included practical species. En route in direction of that aim, the interfacial self-assembly of the amphiphilic molecules, 18-Methyl Eicosanoic acid 18-MEA and 4-(tetradecyl)benzene diazonium tetrafluoroborate TDDS, on the air-water interface and solid on silicon wafer has been investigated utilizing Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) methods and Atomic Pressure Microscopy. The affect of composition and floor stress (SP) on the formation of nanodomains and microstructures was examined. TDDS, (which can be utilized to switch the digital construction of graphene), behaves as a co-surfactant within the 18-MEA movie at low concentrations, facilitating the formation of homogeneous nanodomains with practical capability. At greater TDDS concentrations, there’s proof for section separation within the domains, and the TDDS moreover partitions to the aqueous section at greater pressures. By manipulating the 18-MEA:TDDS ratio and SP, common nano-patterns will be transitioned into novel 2D buildings paying homage to 3D water-in-oil-in-water (WOW) analogues (“cookie techniques”), providing a flexible technique for designing nanoarchitectures with potential purposes in graphene patterning.
