I am using QCM-D (Qsense e4) to monitor building of LBL films. PEI and PSS (poly styrenesulfonate) (2 mg/ml) (pH5) were used with Au sensor. Only super small (2 Hz) change of F can be found. In papers, the change is about 50 Hz by using 0.5 mg/ml solutions. I also tried using 10 mg/ml solution, the change is still only 15 Hz.
Can anyone help me to figure it out?
Thanks
