Abstract

We investigated electric conductivities of poly nucleic acid-amphiphile polyion complex monolayers. The polyion complex monolayers were prepared by spreading of dialkylammonium salt on aqueous solutions of various poly nucleic acids. The complex monolayers were compressed at the air–water interface and transferred on comb-shaped Au-electrode substrates by vertical lifting method. I–T plots of the complex monolayers, which were measured under applying direct voltage, suggested that the complex monolayers were dielectric substances. The I–V plots indicated that the conductivity of the monolayer depended on the species of poly nucleic acids. Based on the ac impedance analysis of those monolayers, the bulk resistance of those monolayers was estimated from the complex impedance plane plots.
