The used fluorinated surfactant, which was provided by DuPont,has an average chemical structure of C8F17C2H4(OC2H4)9OH. Itis labeled as RF8(EO)9. The hydrophilic chain moiety exhibitsa Gaussian chain length distribution and the hydrophobic partis composed of well defined mixture of fluorinated tails. The selected triblock copolymer, Pluronic P123 [(EO)20(PO)70(EO)20], 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane (APTES), tetramethoxysilane (TMOS)and the dyes were purchased from Aldrich. Deionized water wasused to prepare the various samples
