ABSTRACT
In this study, we investigated the
conductivity enhancement of calix[8]arene-multi-walled CNTs
(MWCNTs)
thin film. Two types of calix[8]arenes were used, which were
5,11,17,23,29,35,41,47-p-tert-butyl-49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56-oktakis[(carboxy)-pentoxy]-
calix[8]arene (C[8]1) and 49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56 -octahydroxycalix[8]arene
(C[8]2). The monolayer properties of these two types of calix[8]arene
on water subphase were examined. Later, the thin films were fabricated by
combining different ratios of each types of calix[8]arene
with MWCNTs using spin coating deposition technique. Then, the
developed thin films were characterized using surface potential meter and four
point probe. Thin films of C[8]2 with hydroxyl groups at lower rims
demonstrated higher surface potential and conductivity as compared to the thin
films of C[8]1 with upper rims of tert-butyl groups and lower rims of carboxyl
groups. These results indicated that the conductivity of calixarene thin films
can be enhanced by MWCNTs through simple spin coating
technique.

ABSTRAK
Dalam kajian ini, kami mengkaji tentang
peningkatan kekonduksian lapisan nipis kaliks[8]arena-nanotiub
karbon multi-dinding (MWCNTs). Dua jenis kaliksarena digunakan,
iaitu 5,11,17,23,29,35,41,47-p-tert-butil-49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56-oktakis[(karboksi)-pentoksi]
-caliks[8]arene (C[8]1) dan 49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56-oktahidroksikaliks[8]arene
(C[8]2). Sifat lapisan mono kaliksarena
atas permukaan air telah dikaji. Kemudian, lapisan nipis
telah dibentuk dengan menggunakan nisbah yang berbeza bagi setiap
jenis kaliks[8]arena dengan MWCNTs
menggunakan teknik penglitupan putaran. Seterusnya, lapisan nipis
tersebut dicirikan dengan menggunakan meter potensi permukaan dan
empat penduga titik. Lapisan nipis C[8]2
dengan kumpulan hidrosil pada rim bawah menunjukkan potensi permukaan
dan kekonduksian yang lebih tinggi berbanding dengan lapisan nipis
C[8]1 dengan rim atas yang terdiri daripada kumpulan tert-butil
dan rim bawah yang terdiri daripada kumpulan karboksil. Keputusan ini menunjukkan bahawa kekonduksian lapisan nipis kaliksarena boleh dipertingkatkan dengan MWCNTs melalui teknik penglitupan
putaran yang ringkas.
