The assembly of nanomaterials into thin films is an important area in the nanofabrication of novel devices. The monodispersity of nanoparticles plays an essential role in the resulting quality of the assembled mono- and multilayers. Larger polydispersity leads to smaller lateral correlation lengths and smaller domains of aligned nanoparticles, thus resulting in more point and line defects. Perfectly monodisperse nanoparticles should therefore minimize the number of defects in the assembled films. Despite tremendous progress in reducing the polydispersity of nanoparticles, there has been limited research on the assembly of thin films out of perfectly monodisperse nanoclusters. Here, we show a formation of Langmuir films using perfectly monodisperse gold nanoclusters with composition Au32(nBu3P)12Cl8 exhibiting a diameter of 1.8 nm. Using both in situ and ex situ small-angle X-ray scattering, we show that the monolayer formed on a Langmuir-Blodgett trough exhibits long-range order. Moreover, after compressing the monolayer, we found that the stress accumulated prior to the monolayer collapse triggers a transition to a short-range order not previously reported. If such monolayer is compressed further, the second layer is not formed as in the case of standard nanoparticles. Instead, a growth of islands by an odd number of layers is observed, leading to a thin film with a structure consisting of two different orientations of the hexagonal lattice. Such anomalous behavior may have implications for the possibilities of thin-film formation.
