Molecular engineering of surfaces using self-assembled monolayers.
The self-assembly of molecules into structurally organized monolayers (SAMs) uses the flexibility of organic chemistry and coordination chemistry to generate well-defined, synthetic surfaces with known molecular and macroscopic properties. The process of designing monolayers with a specified structure gives a high level of control over the molecular-level composition in the direction perpendicu...
متن کاملElectrochemical desorption of self-assembled monolayers for engineering cellular tissues.
Adherent cells, cell sheets, and spheroids were harvested noninvasively from a culture surface by means of electrochemical desorption of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of alkanethiol. The SAM surface was made adhesive by the covalent bonding of Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD)-peptides to the alkanethiol molecules. The application of a negative electrical potential caused the reductive desorption of the SAM...
متن کاملAdsorption-induced surface stresses in alkanethiolate-au self-assembled monolayers.
First-principles calculations were employed to elucidate the origin of adsorption-induced surface stresses in alkanethiolate self-assembled monolayers on an Au(111) surface. Our results suggest a mechanism that accounts for the huge relief of the tensile stress compared to the bare surface in terms of a local rearrangement of surface Au atoms accompanying charge removal from the surface towards...
متن کاملInverted Surface Dipoles in Fluorinated Self-Assembled Monolayers
The presence of surface dipoles in selfassembled monolayers (SAMs) gives rise to profound effects on the interfacial properties of the films. For example, CF3terminated alkanethiolate films are surprisingly more wettable toward polar contacting liquids than analogous hydrocarbon SAMs due to the fluorocarbon-to-hydrocarbon transition (CF3−CH2) at the interface (i.e., the presence of a strong “FC...
متن کاملElectroactive oligoaniline-containing self-assembled monolayers for tissue engineering applications.
A novel electroactive silsesquioxane precursor, N-(4-aminophenyl)-N'-(4'-(3-triethoxysilyl-propyl-ureido) phenyl-1,4-quinonenediimine) (ATQD), was successfully synthesized from the emeraldine form of amino-capped aniline trimers via a one-step coupling reaction and subsequent purification by column chromatography. The physicochemical properties of ATQD were characterized using mass spectrometry...
