Two-dimensional ordering of benzenethiol self-assembled monolayers guided by displacement of cyclohexanethiols on Au(111).

چکیده
Although the adsorption of benzenethiols (BT) on Au(111) usually leads to the formation of disordered phases, we demonstrate here that the displacement of preadsorbed cyclohexanethiol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au(111) by BT molecules can be a successful approach to obtain two-dimensional BT SAMs with long-range ordered domains.

The interface structure of n-alkylthiolate self-assembled monolayers on coinage metal surfaces.
The current state of understanding of the structure of the metal/thiolate interface of n-alkylthiolate 'self-assembled monolayers' (SAMs) on Cu(111), Ag(111) and Au(111) is reviewed. On Cu(111) and Ag(111) there is now clear evidence that adsorbate-induced reconstruction of the outermost metal layer occurs to a less atomically-dense structure, with the S head-group atom bonded to four-fold and ...
متن کاملCurrent understanding of the structure, phase transitions and dynamics of self-assembled monolayers on two- and three-dimensional surfaces
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have been the preferred material systems to investigate specific properties in several disciplines for nearly 15 years. Advances in various techniques and their application to the study of SAMs have dramatically improved our understanding of these systems. Adaptation of this molecular architecture into three dimensions in the form of monolayer-protected clusters...

For phase transitions in complex low-dimensional organic materials, the internal degrees of freedom of the molecules, which are an important characteristic of organics, have to be considered, and a very rich phase behavior, as seen, for example, in Langmuir films (on liquid surfaces) can be found. Among the well-defined, crystalline two-dimensional organic thin films chemisorbed on a solid subs...
متن کاملSelective adsorption of dithiolate-modified multi-wall carbon nanotubes onto alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers on Au(111).
Dithiolate-modified multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) adsorb selectively on the self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiols on a Au surface: the long dithiolates attached to the MWCNTs anchor the massive MWCNTs onto the Au surface by replacing the shorter thiolates of SAMs.
متن کاملFirst-principles study on the electronic structure of Thiophenbithiol (TBT) on Au(100) surface
First principle calculations were performed using Density functional theory within the local spin density approximation (LSDA) to understand the electronic properties of Au(100)+TBT system and compare the results with Au(100) and bulk Au properties. Band structure, the total DOS and charge density for these materials are calculated. We found that the HOMO for Au(100)+TBT becomes broader than Au...
