Large Area Synthesis of a Nanoporous Two-Dimensional Polymer at the Air/Water Interface
We present the synthesis
of a two-dimensional polymer at the air/water interface and its nm-resolution
imaging. Trigonal star, amphiphilic monomers bearing three anthraceno
groups on a central triptycene core are confined at the air/water
interface. Compression followed by photopolymerization on the interface
provides the two-dimensional polymer. Analysis by scanning tunneling
microscopy suggests that the polymer is periodic with ultrahigh pore
density
