摘要
The thermo-responsive behaviour of thiol modified poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) films immobilized on gold are probed by in Situ broadband sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. The pNIPAM films were prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) using a nitro-biphenyl-thiol (NBT)-SAM on a polycrystalline gold surface as a:substrate. Additionally, Raman and infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS) are applied to spin-coated pNIPAM films. Molecular groups involved in the reorientation and disordering of the polymer chains-during the LCST (lower critical solution temperature) transition of pNIPAM are identified. The characteristic vibrations of the CH3 groups show a gradual reorientation of the isopropyl groups within the pNIPAM film and instantaneous reorientation of the outermost CH3 groups around 32 degrees C.
