Features of the Self-organization of Films Based on Triglycine under the Influence of Vapors of Organic Compounds

Abstract

© 2020, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. Abstract: The self-assembly of triglycine on the surface of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and mica is studied by atomic force microscopy. The possibility of the formation of crystalline structures based on triglycine as a result of the action of vapors of organic compounds or water on its amorphous film is demonstrated. It is shown that organic compounds capable of forming hydrogen bonds affect the surface of films deposited onto these substrates. Organic compounds incapable of hydrogen bonding change the morphology of films deposited only onto the surface of pyrographite.
