Abstract

Adsorption of 3,3'-dimethyl-9-ethylthiacarbocyanine dyes with iodide or bromide counter ions showed two energy states of sulfur in the dye molecule, one is the adsorption state to AgCl substrate and the other occurs when dye molecules aggregated. Though iodide conversion occurred on KI adsorption on AgCl, the counter ion of the dye molecule did not cause halide conversion on adsorption. The counter ion was observed only after the first dye monolayer on AgCl was completed, and increased parallel with adsorbed dye amounts. On Ag-deposited quartz plate monolayer formation occurred only by dye adsorption compared by its counter ion, while only iodine adsorbed in KI adsorption.
