%X The structure and dynamics of nanostructure films formed by mixtures of soy phosphatidylcholine and glycerol dioleate at the silicon–aqueous interface were studied by grazing incidence neutron spin echo spectroscopy (GINSES), specular and off-specular neutron reflectometry, and small-angle X-ray diffraction. Reverse hexagonal (HII) and micellar cubic phase (Fd3m) layers at the solid–liquid interface have been identified with neutron reflectometry measurements. A preferred orientation of the liquid crystalline (LC) domains was observed only for the anisotropic HII phase. The size of the LC domains was found to be about 1 micrometer as estimated from the width of the diffraction peaks. GINSES revealed that the cubic phase forms rather rigid films. In comparison, the HII film was more flexible, appearing as a modified undulation spectrum of the cylinders due to the interaction with the substrate.
