The area of thin film fabrication, in which ordered, functional supramolecular structures are the chief goal, has been greatly impacted by the recent introduction of the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technique. 1 The LbL method permits the fabrication of multilayer thin film assemblies on solid supports by the spontaneous sequential adsorption of oppositely charged species from dilute aqueous solutions onto charged substrates. The driving force for the multilayer film buildup is primarily due to the electrostatic attraction and complex formation between the charged species deposited. The LbL approach was initially employed to construct multilayer films of polyelectrolytes, 1 and subsequently extended to include proteins, 2 nucleic acids, 3 dyes, 4 dendrimers, 5 and various inorganic nanoparticles6 in polyelectrolyte multilayer assemblies by replacing one of the polyions by a similarly charged species.The vast majority of studies concerning the LbL technique have employed macroscopically flat charged surfaces as substrates for multilayer film formation. Recently, Keller et al. reported the preparation of alternating composite multilayers of exfoliated zirconium phosphate sheets and charged redox polymers on (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane-modified silica particles. 7 In more recent studies, 8 the LbL approach was successfully applied to utilize submicrometer-and micrometer-sized, charged colloidal particles as the adsorbing substrates to produce colloid-supported polyelectrolyte multilayer films: regular stepwise polyelectrolyte multilayer growth was observed on the colloids. In a subsequent
