报告内容摘要：

Much has been learnt in recent years to study and control the structure of organic molecules at interfaces, and an especially interesting interface has been that of liquids, because they enable the movement of molecules while ordering and exhibit no ordered substrate interactions. This will be briefly reviewed, making use of new techniques like grazing incidence diffraction , optical microscopy and FTIR spectroscopy. Here the systems range from simple amphiphile monolayers to biologically relevant molecules like phospholipids and peptides.

With the knowledge on organic monolayers one can build up organized films, and one of the most versatile techniques is that of building multilayers by consecutive adsorption of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes. This technique can be extended to coat colloids, and after core removal one obtains microcapsules with walls defined with nm precision. The permeability and the mechanics of these shells can be manipulated in a controlled way by external fields, pH, salt and temperature, and this can be made use of in many applications. We will specifically concentrate on applications as self-repairing coatings as well as light induced release to study immune response.

By ultrasonic treatment a surface can be structured that it is nanoporous  and thus provides strong adhesion for organic films. The technique is applicable to many different inorganic surfaces including hard ones as TiO2, and at the same step also drugs can be inserted. This then leads to inorganic surfaces containing biologically active molecules that can be designed to control the interaction with adjacent cells. Examples on this to be presented are antibacterial coatings and surfaces to stimulate the growth of osteoblasts by controlled release of growth factors.
