Alkanethiols on platinum: multicomponent self-assembled monolayers.
We have studied the formation of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of n-alkanethiols on platinum thin films using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), reflection-absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS), spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), and contact angle (CA) measurements. Specifically, SAMs of 1-hexanethiol, 1-dodecanethiol, and 1-octadecanethiol were grown on polycrystalline Pt films, and t...
متن کاملImaging photoelectron transmission through self-assembled monolayers: the work-function of alkanethiols coated gold.
In this paper, we present a new approach for studying the electronic properties of self-assembled monolayers and their interaction with a conductive substrate, the low-energy photoelectron imaging spectroscopy (LEPIS). LEPIS relies on imaging of photoelectrons ejected from a conductive substrate and subsequently transmitted through organic monolayers. Using this method, we measure the relative ...
متن کاملWork function modification of the (111) gold surface covered by long alkanethiol-based self-assembled monolayers.
Many recent experimental studies have demonstrated that the deposition of self-assembled monolayers on a metal electrode can significantly modulate its work function and hence charge injection properties in organic-based devices. In this context, we model here by means of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations the deposition of long saturated and partially fluorinated alkanethiol chains o...
متن کاملModification of vibrational damping times in thin gold films by self-assembled molecular layers
The mechanical contact between a thin gold film and a silicon substrate is investigated by ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy providing quantitative values on the damping time of coherent longitudinal vibrations of the gold film. A distinct increase in damping times is observed when a self-assembled molecular layer is introduced between the gold film and the substrate. We deduce the frequency de...
متن کاملOrthogonal self-assembled monolayers: alkanethiols on gold and alkane carboxylic acids on alumina.
This work demonstrates the practicality of forming two self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), independently but simultaneously, by adsorption of two different adsorbates from a common solution onto a substrate exposing two different materials at its surface. The experimental procedure and the degree of independence achieved in the resulting SAMs are illustrated by examination of monolayers obtained ...
