Research Abstract |
In this study, a quartz-crystal-microbalance (QCM) and optical-waveguide-spectroscopy hybrid sensor was prepared and evaluation of functional organic thin film during deposition process was conducted. A measurement system was developed and a relationship between optical property and thickness of vacuum evaporated organic thin film was investigated. Thin films of lead phthalocyanine (PbPc), one of promising solar cell material, were mainly studied. The aggregate formation and molecular orientation and their substrate temperature and substrate surface treatment dependences were investigated in a thickness range from sub-monolayer to several tens of nanometers. Furthermore, QCM and surface-plasmon-resonance hybrid sensor was prepared and evaluations of functional organic thin films were conducted during deposition processes in air and water.
