and found in nature as adiposome organelles or in man-made materials such as drug
delivery systems. However, the molecular level understanding of such monolayers remains
elusive. Here, we investigate the molecular structure of phosphatidylcholine (PC) lipids
forming 3D monolayers on the surface of hexadecane nanodroplets. The effects of acyl
chain length, saturation, and number of acyl tails per lipid were studied with vibrational sum …
