## Abstract Polyelectrolyte multilayer film (PMF) is conventionally fabricated by the layerβbyβlayer (LBL) assembly of a pair of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes on a substrate through electrostatic attractions. However, the lack of longβterm stability of PMF under physiological conditions limit

## Abstract Summary: Assemblies of oppositely charged Lβlysine/carboxylic acid functionalized polyphenylene dendrimers and hybrid multilayers of Lβlysine dendrimers/colloidal gold nanocrystals were fabricated as alternate multilayers on 3βmercaptopropionic acid coated gold surfaces via layerβbyβlay
A flexible approach for the fabrication of chemical gradients on different substrates is presented. The key idea of the approach is tuning the exchange reaction between a self-assembled monolayer covering the substrate and a potential molecular substituent by electron irradiation. The figure shows w
