Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers of alternating barium arachidate and barium dimyristoyl phosphatidate are characterized by secondary ion mass spectrometry employing a 40 keV buckminsterfullerene (C60) ion source. These films exhibit well-defined structures with minimal chemical mixing between layers, making them an intriguing
