Creating organized nanomaterial coatings with the Langmuir-Blodgett method

Coatings and thin films made from nanomaterials such as nanoparticles, graphene or nanowires are gaining recognition and use in various products and applications including displays, sensors, medical devices and energy storages. The challenge is to achieve a homogenous coating with optimized packing density, particle organization and film thickness. One of the most sophisticated techniques for creating nanomaterial thin films and coatings is Langmuir-Blodgett (LB).
