浸泡法和旋涂法对偶氮聚电解质静电吸附自组装膜结构及性能的影响

利用浸泡和旋涂静电吸附自组装技术制备了含有偶氮生色团的聚电解质薄膜,比较了两种方法在自组装膜生长机理、膜结构以及膜光学性能方面的差异.利用紫外光谱和椭偏仪检测自组装膜的生长情况,利用原子力显微镜对膜表面结构进行了表征,并用偏振激光在膜表面进行了写光栅实验.结果表明,采用浸泡法和旋涂法都可以制备出表面光滑均匀的含偶氮生色团的聚电解质自组装膜.但是浸泡法自组装膜的生长速度要比旋涂法快.在自组装膜厚度较小的情况下,旋涂法得到的自组装膜可以写出明显的光栅而浸泡法不可以.随着自组装膜厚度的增加,两种方法得到的自组装膜都可以写出明显的光栅.这些结果说明浸泡法自组装膜内部聚电解质分子的层间穿插比较严重,而旋涂法自组装膜内分子穿插要弱得多.

电流滴定法对两种短链分子自组装膜的研究

把带有—NH2的半胱胺和4-氨基硫酚两种短链分子组装到金电极上,形成自组装单分子膜;两种自组装膜在[Fe(CN)6]3-/4-溶液中进行循环伏安扫描时,出现了不同于长链分子自组装膜的行为:峰间距变窄、峰电流变大的现象,这是由于两者在金上组装不够致密,以及末端的—NH2存在对[Fe(CN)6]3-/4-的影响造成的。通过改变溶液的pH,研究溶液中H 浓度对半胱胺自组装膜和4-氨基硫酚自组装膜在[Fe(CN)6]3-/4-溶液中电化学行为的影响;通过电流滴定的方法求算出半胱胺自组装膜和4-氨基硫酚自组装膜的表面pKb分别为2.4±0.2和4.7±0.2;通过在碱性条件下的循环伏安图,对两者的组装效果进行了比较。

Supramolecular microcontact printing and dip-pen nanolithography on molecular printboards

The transfer of functional molecules onto self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) by means of soft and scanning-probe lithographic techniques-microcontact printing (muCP) and dip-pen nanolithography (DPN), respectively-and the stability of the molecular patterns during competitive rinsing conditions were examined. A series of guests with different valencies were transferred onto beta-cyclodextrin- (beta-CD-) terminated SAMs and onto reference hydroxy-terminated SAMs. Although physical contact was sufficient to generate patterns on both types of SAMs, only molecular patterns of multivalent guests transferred onto the beta-CD SAMs were stable under the rinsing conditions that caused the removal of the same guests from the reference SAMs. The formation of kinetically stable molecular patterns by supramolecular DPN with a lateral resolution of 60 nm exemplifies the use of beta-CD-terminated SAMs as molecular printboards for the selective immobilization of printboard-compatible guests on the nanometer scale through the use of specific, multivalent supramolecular interactions. Electroless deposition of copper on the printboard was shown to occur selectively on the areas patterned with dendrimer-stabilized gold nanoparticles.     

Dynamic and collective electrochemical responses of tetrathiafulvalene derivative self-assembled monolayers

Electroactive tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-containing alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) were designed and synthesized to elucidate the relationship between electrochemical responses and film structures. Two TTF derivative molecules having one alkanethiol chain (1) and two alkanethiol chains (2) were utilized to modulate the molecular packing arrangements in the SAMs, and the formation and structure of the SAMs were characterized by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy (SPR). SPR measurements in various contacting media demonstrated loose packing of SAM 1 and close packing of SAM 2 due to the different space fillings of the molecules. Two successive one-electron redox waves were observed for both SAMs by cyclic voltammetry. The peak widths of the redox waves were strongly dependent on the oxidation states of the TTF moieties, the packing arrangement of the SAMs, and the contacting medium. We found that TTF-based SAMs exhibited collective electrochemical responses induced by dynamic structural changes, depending on the degree of freedom for the component molecules in the SAMs. These results imply that the molecular design, taking into account the electrochemical responses, extends the available range of molecular-based functionalities in TTF-based SAMs.

Fabrication of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and inorganic micropattern on flexible polymer substrate

By grafting (aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) as the buffer layer on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) surface, the SAMs ofoctadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS), phenyltrichlorosilane (PTCS), vinyltrichlorosilane (VTCS), andp-tolyltrichlorosilane (TTCS) were fabricated on the flexible polymer substrate. The properties of SAMs were accurately controlled by adjusting the immersing time of substrates in the solutions and the concentration of the solutions. The SAMs acted as templates, and TiO2 micropattern was successfully deposited on OTS, TTCS, and PTCS SAMs.     

Characterization of self-assembled monolayers of porphyrins bearing multiple thiol-derivatized rigid-rod tethers

A series of multithiol-functionalized zinc porphyrins has been prepared and characterized as self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au. The molecules, designated ZnPS(n) (n = 1-4), contain from one to four [(S-acetylthio)methyl]phenylethynylphenyl groups appended to the meso-position of the porphyrin; the other meso-substituents are phenyl groups. For the dithiol-functionalized molecules, both the cis- and the trans-appended structures were examined. The ZnPS(n) SAMs were investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and various electrochemical methods. The studies reveal the following characteristics of the ZnPS(n) SAMs. (1) The ZnPS(n) molecules bind to the Au surface via a single thiol regardless of the number of thiol appendages that are available per molecular unit. (2) The porphyrins in the ZnPS(3) and ZnPS(4) SAMs bind to the surface in a more upright orientation than the porphyrins in the ZnPS(1), cis-ZnPS(2), and trans-ZnPS(2) SAMs. The porphyrins in the ZnPS(3) and ZnPS(4) SAMs are also more densely packed than those in the cis-ZnPS(2) and trans-ZnPS(2) SAMs. The packing density of the ZnPS(3) and ZnPS(4) SAMs is similar to that of the ZnPS(1) SAMs, despite the larger size of the molecules in the former SAMs. (3) The thermodynamics and kinetics of electron transfer are generally similar for all of the ZnPS(n) SAMs. The general similarities in the electron-transfer characteristics for all of the SAMs are attributed to the similar binding motif.     

Influence of alkyl chain length on the structure of dialkyldithiophosphinic Acid self-assembled monolayers on gold

We report the formation and characterization of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) based on dialkyldithiophosphinic acid adsorbates {[CH(3)(CH(2))(n)](2)P(S)SH (n = 5, 9, 11, 13, 15)} on gold substrates. SAMs were characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, reflection-absorption infrared spectroscopy, contact angle measurements, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Data show that there is a roughly 60:40 mixture of bidentate and monodentate adsorbates in each of these SAMs. The presence of monodentate adsorbates is due to the numerous and deep grain boundaries of the underlying gold substrate, which disrupt chelation. Comparing the characterization data of dialkyldithiophosphinic acid SAMs with those of analogous n-alkanethiolate SAMs shows that both SAMs follow a similar trend: The alkyl chains become increasingly organized and crystalline with increasing alkyl chain length. The alkyl groups of dialkyldithiophosphinic acid SAMs, however, are generally less densely packed than those of n-alkanethiolate SAMs. For short alkyl chains (hexyl, decyl, and dodecyl), the significantly lower packing densities cause the alkyl chains to be liquid-like and disorganized. Long-chain dialkyldithiophosphinic acid SAMs are only slightly less crystalline than analogous n-alkanethiolate SAMs.
