51. Reabsorption of donor emission by neighboring acceptors instead of Förster energy transfer is considered to be nominal because of the 2-dimensional alignment of donor and acceptor chromophores as a mixed monolayer. The emission spectra from a mixed monolayer of 3 and 6 (r = 4) were measured after small changes of the incidence angle α of the excitation beam (Δα < 20 ). Only minor changes in the emission spectra were observed and the relative emission intensity from the donor and acceptor chromophores remained the same.

53. The assembly of alkoxysilanes is a two-step process that involves pretreatment of the adsorbates prior to adsorption on the substrate. Initially, siloxane dimers and trimers are formed in the adsorbate solution by an acid-catalyzed condensation. Upon immersion of the silicon wafer, these oligomers adsorb onto the silanol surface by hydrogen bonding and become covalently bound to the surface by curing the wafers. The adsorption of the chromophor oligomers from solution occurs randomly. Therefore, the chromophore composition on the monolayer may not be the same as in solution.
54. The donor (D) and acceptor (A) distribution in the siloxane dimers and trimers was calculated by reaction kinetics from the molar amount of D and A in solution. It is assumed that the reaction rate for siloxane formation is not affected by its substituents and that the reaction is pseudo zero order in acid. The simulated mixture composition was analyzed at various reaction times. The relative distribution of D and A varies slightly with reaction time and rate, and ranges for the oligomer distribution are given. A mixture of mole ratio r = D/A = 4 contains 70-76 mol% dimers and trimers without acceptor (DDD, DD) and 19-20 mole% dimers and trimers having one acceptor (AD, ADD, DAD). Only 30-33 mol% of DD and DDD oligomers are formed for a mixture of mole ratio r = 1 and 32-33 mol% of dimers and trimers contain one acceptor.
