Ultrathin films of the ionic liquid (IL) 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [EMIM][TfN], are prepared on a glass substrate by means of an in situ thermal-evaporation/condensation process under ultrahigh-vacuum conditions. By using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), it is demonstrated that the first layer of the IL film grows two dimensionally, followed by the three-dimensional growth of successive layers. The first molecular layer consists of a bilayer, with the [EMIM] cations in contact to the surface and the [TfN] anions at the vacuum side. The ultrathin IL films are found to be stable under ambient conditions. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
