Non-Amontons behavior of friction in single contacts

, 2005
We report on the frictional properties of a single contact between a glassy polymer lens and a flat silica substrate covered either by a disordered or by a self-assembled alkylsilane monolayer.

Hydrothermal treatment and butylphosphonic acid derived self-assembled monolayers for improving the surface chemistry and corrosion resistance of AZ61 magnesium alloy

Scientific Reports, 2017
The hydrothermal treatment followed by a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of 1-butylphosphonic acid through the tethering by aggregation and growth (T-BAG) method was employed to produce protective surface coatings on the Mg-6Al-1Zn alloy (AZ61) for ...

Effect of an Underlying Monolayer of a Nafion Film upon Redox Reaction of Methyl Viologen on a Au Electrode

Electrochemistry, 2021
To explore the effect of the presence of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of an alkyl thiol derivative as an underlayer of a Nafion film, redox reaction of methyl viologen (MV) at the Au/SAM/Nafion (1 µm-thick) interface was characterized using the ...

Microdroplet Protein Sensors on a Gold Surface with a Self-assembled Monolayer Treatment

International Journal of Automation and Smart Technology, 2012
A new kind of microdroplet-based biological protein sensor is presented. The sensor was made by placing silicon oil on gold film with a self-assembled monolayer (SAM). The surface tension dominates the sensitivity of the sensor.

Screening of self-assembled monolayer for aflatoxin B1 detection using immune-capacitive sensor

Biotechnology Reports, 2015
A capacitive biosensor was used for detection of aflatoxin B1. Two different methods for cleaning gold electrodes were evaluated using cyclic voltammetry in the presence of ferricyanide as redox couple.

Self-assembly of Microcapsules via Colloidal Bond Hybridization and Anisotropy

, 2016
Particles with directional interactions are promising building blocks for new functional materials and may serve as models for biological structures. Mutually attractive nanoparticles that are deformable due to flexible surface groups, for example, may ...

Tuning the Dielectric Properties of Individual Clay Nanosheets by Interlayer Composition: Toward Nano‐Electret Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The dielectric properties of clays are studied on the level of individual monolayers and functional double stacks. The material breakdown characteristics and charge storage performance are analyzed. For illustration, a defined charge pattern representing a cuneiform character is produced, written into a microscopic clay tile, referencing the origins of

Investigating the Blocking Effect of Alkanethiol Self-assembled Monolayer on Electrochemical Response of the Split Gq-based DNA-NTs-based Biosensor

Electrochemistry
The split G-quadruplex-based DNA-nanotweezwers-based electrochemical DNA sensor was characterized by focusing on the blocking ability of the mixed self-assembled monolayer (SAM) against the nonspecific adsorption of hemin and the direct reduction of ...
