Abstract
A photoactive monolayer of an amphiphilic 13-membered azo-phane shows no variation of area per molecule during photoinduced isomerization. T he surface potential and Brewster angle reflectivity feature a selecti vity and sensitivity for sodium ions in the subphase. The metal ions d o not influence the reversible Z E isomerization, as concluded from re flection spectroscopic measurement. This photoactive monolayer, theref ore, is an example of a new type of sodium optrode.
