Hydrophilic surfaces via the self-assembly of nitrile-terminated alkanethiols on gold

A series of CN-terminated alkanethiols were synthesized and used to generate self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold. The SAMs were characterized using ellipsometry, contact angle goniometry, polarization modulation infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS), and X-ray photoelectron spe...
