Outline • Introduction • Experimental setup • Polymorphism in biphenyl-based SAMs 4. Odd/even effect in BPn/Au 5. Conclusions
Tail Spacer Head Typical mM concentrations in solvent (ethanol) Substrate Introduction Self-Assembled Monolayer: (SAM) Highly ordered and oriented assemblies that are formed spontaneously by the adsorption of a surfactant with a specific affinity of the headgroup to a substrate. Tail : surface properties Spacer : intermolecular interactions ordening and orientation molecules Head : bound to substrate atom
Introduction Interaction of energetic projectiles with self-assembled monolayers: Aim: to investigate the fundamental influence ofthe detailed geometric and electronic structure of SAMs on projectile-induced desorption • Characterization: • damage induced during standard characterization techniques such as SIMS and AES • Controlled modification: SAMs are promising to be used as ultrathin resist in lithographic patterning
