Generation of Maxwell-displacement-current of Phospholipid Monolayers at the Air/Water Interface

A series of amphiphilic organic materials of phospholipids with different alkyl chain namely 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE) 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylethanolamine (DPPE) and 1,2-disteroyl-sn-glycero-phosphatidylethanolamine (DSPE) have been studied as Lan...
