The process of formation of a Langmuir–Schaefer (LS) matrix based on a mixed monolayer of arachidic acid (AA) and 8 nm CdSe/CdS/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) stabilized by molecules of trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) was investigated. The change in the morphology, monolayer compressibility, and area per ele...
