Abstract

Langmuir-Blodgett films of a dithiolium salt are found to be in-plane oriented with respect to the dipping direction. Tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) molecules can be readily introduced into these films by the use of the diffusion method. The main result is that TCNQ molecules are also found to be in-plane oriented. The possible mechanisms involved are discussed.
