Abstract

A monolayer of oxide-covered Sn nanoparticles was produced by direct deposition of Sn onto three different solid supported liquid-crystalline phospholipid membranes. The SnO_x/Sn nanoparticles were spontaneously encapsulated by the lipid molecules during deposition. After removing the encapsulating lipid molecules by plasma etching, photoluminescence of the SnO_x/Sn monolayer deposited on different lipid membranes was compared.
