Effects of Structure on the Tribological Properties of Organic Self-Assembled Molecular Layers

open access: yesTribology Online, 2013
The tribological properties of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au were investigated with a focus on the effects of the structure and end groups of the molecules upon the frictional properties of the modified surfaces of the SAMs.

Chiral molecular films as electron polarizers and polarization modulators

open access: yes, 2012
Recent experiments on electron scattering through molecular films have shown that chiral molecules can be efficient sources of polarized electrons even in the absence of heavy nuclei as source of a strong spin-orbit interaction.

Mechanical stability in flexible perovskite solar cells: Interface engineering and device design

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Statistics of the improvement methods for f‐PSCs. Abstract Flexible perovskite solar cells (f‐PSCs) demonstrate significant potential for application in next‐generation wearable electronic devices and photovoltaic building integration due to their high power conversion efficiency and excellent power‐to‐weight ratio. However, the inherent brittleness of

Observation of Ice-Like Two-Dimensional Flakes on Self-Assembled Protein Monolayer without Nanoconfinement under Ambient Conditions

open access: yesNano-Micro Letters
Highlights The two-dimensional (2D) ice-like water layers are formed on the self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), which support the physisorption of Cytochrome C (Cyt C) protein layer under ambient conditions, without the need for nanoconfinement.

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

open access: yes, 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.

Application of mixed self-assembled monolayers (Mixed SAMs) for nucleic acid detection

open access: yesMeasurement, 2016
Mixed self-assembled monolayers (Mixed SAMs) consisting of 8-Ferrocenyl-1-octanethiol and 6-Mercapto-1-hexanol (FcOT:MCH) with probe PNA on gold electrodes were fabricated by using two-step after the optimization of immobilization temperature of FcOT:MCH SAMs. Using AC voltammetry, a novel nucleic acid detection platform, with mixed SAMs, was proposed.

Deuteration‐functionalized self‐assembled monolayers for UV‐durable perovskite solar cells

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
Modification with deuterophenyl groups has been demonstrated to be an effective strategy for the construction of SAMs. The impressive PCE of 26.34% is by far one of the highest values for PSCs with the carbazole‐based SAMs as HTLs. This UV resistance performance represents the highest level of performance reported to date for PSCs using SAMs as HTLs ...

Doping‐Free Polymer Nanoparticle Engineering of n‐Type Organic Mixed Ion–Electron Conductors for Enhancement‐Mode Organic Electrochemical Transistors

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
We report a nanoparticle formulation strategy for the ladder polymer BBL that enables undoped enhancement‐mode OECTs. Controlled reprecipitation with DBSA yields stable nanoparticles, and spray‐coating forms dense, well‐connected films. The resulting devices exhibit strongly enhanced electrochemical response and transconductance, establishing a ...
