Self-assembled monolayers of Alkanethiol on Gold

Studies on the effect of some solvents on the structure, integrity and interfacial properties of organic thiol monolayers

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book deals with the electrochemical studies on
the adsorption
behaviour of some sulphur containing organic
compounds mainly self-assembled
monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiol and alkanethiol
derivatives on
gold surfaces. More specifically, this book focuses
on the
effect of different solvents
on the structure, integrity and interfacial
properties of different organic thiol
monolayers like alkanethiol, aliphatic and aromatic
dithiol, hydroxy and
carboxylic acid thiol and thiocholesterol.This book
also introduces the concept of "hydrophobic gap" at
the alkanethiol SAM-water interface due to drying
transition. The experimental observation based on
double-layer capacitance measurement and Scanning
tunneling microscope (STM) study supports the
Lum-Chandler-Weeks (LCW) theory on hydrophobicity.
