This reversibility is what gives rise to vacancy islands and it is why SAMs of alkanethiolates can be thermally desorbed and undergo exchange with free thiols. A stable ordered mesoporous carbon OMC film electrode was successfully constructed by adsorbing OMC onto a selfassembled monolayer SAM of C 18 H 37 SH chemisorbed on the Au electrode. In the 1980s scientists discovered that alkanethiols spontaneously assembled on noble metals.

Physical and Chemical Characterization of Alkanethiol Self-Assembled Monolayers on Gold111 Figure 31 n-alkanethiol carboxyalkanethiols and aminoalkanethiol chemical. Surface Raman spectroscopy electrochemistry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy have been used to study the effects of air exposure on the stability of self-assembled monolayers SAMs formed from alkanethiols on mechanically polished smooth Ag and Au surfaces. Raman spectra exhibit oxidized sulfur modes after only hours of air exposure.

Self-assembled monolayers SAMs on solid substrates can be formed spontaneously from adsorbates such as alkanoic acids alkyl silanes and thiols. In particular alkanethiolate SAMs on gold have been pursued because of the excellent bonding affinity between sulfur and gold their reproducibility and the ease of working with gold substrates. Self-assembled monolayers SAMs of thiol-terminated molecules in particular SAMs of alkanethiols have been investigated as model systems in fundamental studies as well as for applications in areas such as sensorics molecular electronics as biochemical assays lubrication materials and many others. Undoubtedly the huge number of potential applications is what makes self-assembled monolayers so appealing.
Alkanethiol SAMs present applications in several fields of technology ranging from electronics and spintronics to biosensors bio-recognition devices and drug delivery 1 2.

We demonstrate that the frictional properties of alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers SAMs with various surface-chemical and structural features can be investigated on a macroscopic scale by employing an elastomer as the sliding partner in pin-on-disk tribometry. The mild contact conditions at the elastomeric tribological interface allow the SAM films to remain virtually intact despite the.
