    Abstract:
    Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films at different mole fractions of p-terphenyl have been prepared using two different matrices, viz., stearic acid (SA) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Multilayered LB films have been formed by changing various LB parameters namely, mole fraction of mixing, changing the number of layers as well as also the different surface pressure of lifting. The spectroscopic characteristics of mixed LB films, solution and microcrystal have been compared using UV-vis absorption and steady state fluorescence spectroscopy. Change of planarity of TP molecules are occurred while going from solution to solid states/films. Fluorescence spectra of the mixed LB films reveal intense excimeric emission in the mixed LB films with D1 excimer peak at 397 nm and D2 excimer peak at 412 nm. Various LB parameters namely changing the number of layers as well as the different surface pressure of lifting played important roles in the formation of dual excimeric sites in the mixed LB films.
