Multiple-angle incidence resolution spectrometry (MAIRS), originally developed in our
group, is a unique spectroscopic technique for analyzing the structure of molecular …

Sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy (SFG-VS) has become one of the most
appealing technologies to characterize molecular structures at interfaces. In this focal point …

Usually a surface or an interface is well-defined with little diffusion from one side of the
surface or interface to the other, with the length scale being on the order of one to several …

It is well-known that substrate surface properties have a profound impact on the morphology
of thin films solution coated atop and the resulting solid-state properties. However, design …

A wide variety of charge carrier dynamics, such as transport, separation, and extraction,
occur at the interfaces of planar heterojunction solar cells. Such factors can affect the overall …

It has been demonstrated that tailoring the properties of semiconductor/dielectric interfaces
with fluorinated polymers yields better performance for organic field-effect transistors …

To explore the substrate effect on chain conformation, sum frequency generation vibrational
spectroscopy was used to investigate the variation in the surface structure of a supported …

Among the factors that govern the self-assembly of a molecular system, side chains and
solvent polarity play crucial roles in the morphological alteration of small molecules in …

Adhesion is important in many industrial applications including those in the microelectronics
industry. Flip-chip assemblies commonly utilize epoxy underfills to promote reliability and …

Abstract In this work, poly (3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT) ultrathin films (P3HT-T) were prepared
by spin-coating a dilute P3HT solution (in a toluene: o-dichlorobenzene (Tol: ODCB) blend …
