Chemisorption of organosulfur molecules, such as alkanethiols, arenethiols and disulfide
compounds on gold surfaces and their subsequent self-organization is the archetypal …

The structure of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of long-chain alkyl sulfides on gold
(111) has been resolved by density functional theory–based molecular dynamics …

On the basis of density functional theory calculations, the structure of alkylthiolates on Au
(111) at saturation coverage is presented. A structure that consists of RSAuSR units is …

Alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers on Au (111) are widely studied, yet the exact nature
of the sulfur− gold bond is still debated. Recent studies suggest that Au (111) is significantly …

Adsorption of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on metal surfaces leads to interface dipole
layers that strongly modify the metal work functions. Recently, alkanethiolate SAMs have …

Alkane thiol self-assembled monolayers form the backbone of many surface technologies
but the true complexity of these molecule-metal interfaces has only recently been realized …

Electronic transport mechanisms in molecular junctions are investigated by a combination of
first-principles calculations and current− voltage measurements of several well …

When alkanethiolate self-assembled monolayers on Au {111} are exchanged with
alkaneselenols from solution, replacement of thiolates by selenols is rapid and complete …

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) containing electroactive functional groups are excellent
model systems for the formation of electronic devices by self-assembly. In particular …

The nature of the sulfur− gold bond in alkanethiol films self-assembled on Au (111) surfaces
is widely contested, despite significant interest in these systems over the last 25 years …
