Disorder in redox-active monolayers convolutes electrochemical characterization. This
disorder can come from pinhole defects, loose packing, heterogeneous distribution of redox …

This review focuses on the molecular design and self-assembly of a new class of crowded
aromatics that form 1-D nanostructures via hydrogen bonding and π–π interactions. These …

Molecular electronics originally proposed that small molecules sandwiched between
electrodes would accomplish electronic functions and enable ultimate scaling to be reached …

We report studies of metal nanoparticle surfaces using vibrational sum frequency generation
(SFG) spectroscopy. SFG is demonstrated as a sensitive and information-rich probe of …

The π–π interactions between organic molecules are among the most important parameters
for optimizing the transport and optical properties of organic transistors, light-emitting diodes …

This book, a multi-authored volume comprising reviews written by leading scientists,
discusses recent advances in the molecular electronics field. It emphasizes the need for …

Mixed self-assembled monolayers of 11-ferrocene-1-undecanethiol (FcC11) and
decanethiol (C10) were prepared by two different methods: from a mixed solution and by …

The electrochemically induced motion of free-standing microcantilevers is attracting interest
as micro/nanoactuators and robotic devices. The development and implementation of these …

Homogeneous and mixed [with biphenylthiol (BPT)] self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of
ferrocene-substituted biphenyl ethynyl thiols (Fc) were prepared on Au (111) substrates and …

The synthesis of the biphenyl alkynyl thiols and thioesters R′–CC–C6H4–C6H4–SR (3:
R′= SiMe3, R= C (O) Me; 4: R′= SiMe3, R= H; 5: R′= H, R= C (O) Me) from I–C6H4 …
