Self-Assembled Monolayers of Azobenzene-Incorporated Alkanethiol on Silver
In the past decade, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have received a great deal of attention for their fundamental importance in understanding interfacial properties as well as for their potential applications in molecular technologies. SAMs have been used in the design of various interfaces for chemical sensors, nonlinear optical materials, optical switches, and high density memory devices. Th...
متن کاملStability and phase separation in mixed self-assembled monolayers.
Recent single molecule experiments rely on the self-assembly of binary mixtures of molecules with very different properties in a stable monolayer, in order to probe the characteristics of the interspersed molecule of interest in a controlled environment. However, not all efforts at coassembly have been successful. To study systematically the behavior of such systems, we derive the free energy o...
متن کاملMicrocontact Printing of Proteins on Mixed Self-Assembled Monolayers
Microcontact printing of proteins from an elastomeric stamp has been demonstrated on a limited number of substrates. This work explores the generality of this method of patterning proteins by examining the role of surface wettability of both the substrate and the stamp in microcontact printing. The substrates used in this study consisted of two-component, mixed self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) ...
متن کاملThe Electronic Structure of Mixed Self-Assembled Monolayers
The electronic structure of mixed self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au(111) surfaces is modeled using slab-type density-functional theory calculations. The studied molecules have a dipolar character induced by polar and electron donating or accepting tail-group substituents. The resulting electronic structure of mixed layers is found to differ qualitatively from a simple superposition of thos...
متن کاملStructure and excitonic coupling in self-assembled monolayers of azobenzene-functionalized alkanethiols.
Optical properties and the geometric structure of self-assembled monolayers of azobenzene-functionalized alkanethiols have been investigated by UV/visible and near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy in combination with density-functional theory. By attaching a trifluoro-methyl end group to the chromophore both the molecular tilt and twist angle of the azobenzene moiety are access...
