Abstract
Adsorbed and spread charged diblock copolymer layers are studied at flexibl e interfaces. In both cases, equilibrium situations can be reached and the structure and fluctuations in height of the interface are examined by diffe rent experimental means. In particular, buckled deformations of the air-wat er interface are evidenced by optical and X-ray scattering techniques. Prel iminary results at the oil-water interface with similar copolymers are disc ussed. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
