Easy orientation of diblock copolymers on self-assembled monolayers using UV irradiation

, 2009
A simple method based on UV/ozone treatment is proposed to control the surface energy of dense grafted silane layers for orientating block copolymer mesophases. Our method allows one to tune the surface energy down to a fraction of a mN/m.

Controlled rotary motion of light-driven molecular motors assembled on a gold film [PDF]

, 2010
Using circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, we show that light-driven rotary molecular motors based on overcrowded alkenes can function in a self-assembled monolayer on semi-transparent gold films.
