The photoelectric con version of a novel Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) film c
onsisting of 3.4.9.10-perylenetetracarboxylic diimides (PTCDI) and amp
hiphilic zinc phthalocyanine (AmZnPc) were investigated. The results s
how that the PTCDI molecules were embedded in the cavity between the l
ong alkyl chains of AmZnPc in the monomolecular layer of LB film. The
V-oc of the monomolecular layer of a mixture of PTCDI (E) and AmZnPc w
as as high as 145 mV. Copyright (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
