SELF - ASSEMBLY OF PHOSPHONATE MONOLAYERS ON GaAs

Crystallization on Self Assembled Monolayers

Over the past two decades, self assembled monolayers (SAMs) (Love et al., 2005; Smith et al., 2004; Ulman, 1996) have been extensively studied due to their many applications in various fields such as electrochemistry (Eckerman et al., 2010), biosensors (Nyquist et al., 2000), protein separation (Chun and Stroeve, 2002) and enantiomer separation (Mastai, 2009). SAMs are organic assemblies formed...

Self Assembled Monolayers -A Review

Self assembly provides a simple route to organise suitable organic molecules on noble metal surface by using long chain organic molecules with various functionalities like -SH,-COOH,-NH2 , Silanes etc. These surfaces can be used to build up interesting nano level architectures. Self assembly is an interesting process for biological relevance because it provides a novel approach to complex struc...

Molecular engineering of surfaces using self-assembled monolayers.

The self-assembly of molecules into structurally organized monolayers (SAMs) uses the flexibility of organic chemistry and coordination chemistry to generate well-defined, synthetic surfaces with known molecular and macroscopic properties. The process of designing monolayers with a specified structure gives a high level of control over the molecular-level composition in the direction perpendicu...

Design of patchy particles using ternary self - assembled monolayers In

Recent simulations have studied the formation of patterns in a binary mixture of immiscible surfactants adsorbed onto the surface of a spherical nanoparticle. The resulting patterns (Janus, spots and stripes) were in good agreement with experimental results. We perform dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulations to study the patterns obtained by adding a third surfactant to the monolayer as...
