Precise surface area is needed for accurate characterization of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on metallic surfaces. The aim of this manuscript was to emphasize that miscalculation of surface area is the major source of errors in SAM electrochemical ...

Controlling Leakage of Potential Juxtacrine Self-Assembled Monolayer-BMP-2 Surfaces
A question which has been intriguing researchers since 1969 is whether covalently linked hormones or growth factors on surfaces are still biologically active i.e. still bind and activate cell surface receptors in the insoluble state. There is evidence of

Conformations and charge transport characteristics of biphenyldithiol self-assembled-monolayer molecular electronic devices: A multiscale computational study [PDF]
We report a computational study of conformations and charge transport characteristics of biphenyldithiol (BPDT) monolayers in the (sqrt(3)×sqrt(3))R30° packing ratio sandwiched between Au(111) electrodes. From force-field molecular-dynamics and annealing

A Density Functional Theory Investigation of Carboranethiol Self-Assembled Monolayer on Au(111)
Isolated and full monolayer adsorption of various carboranethiol (C$_2$B$_{10}$H$_{12}$S) isomers on gold (111) surface have been investigated using both the standard and van der Waals density functional theoretical calculations.

Lactone-Terminated Self-Assembled Monolayers for Mimicking Nanoscale Polyester Surfaces
Two series of lactone-terminated alkanethiol adsorbates with five- and six-membered lactone groups, γ-COCnSH and δ-COCnSH (n = 11, 12), were synthesized and employed to create nanoscale self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold substrates to mimic the ...

Research of Self-assembled Monolayer of Alkanethiol for Corrosion Protection of Brass
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiol have been fabricated on an anodized surface of brass. The inhibition behavior of SAMs of alkanethiol on brass in seawater had been investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and ...

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

Triptycene-terminated thiolate and selenolate monolayers on Au(111)
To study the implications of highly space-demanding organic moieties on the properties of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), triptycyl thiolates and selenolates with and without methylene spacers on Au(111) surfaces were comprehensively studied using ...
