or jean-philippe.michel@universiteparis-saclay.fr A locally organized monolayer film strongly attached to a gold surface is obtained by transfer of a Langmuir Blodgett (LB) film of octadecylamine (ODA) or alcohol (ODOH) onto an Au surface and simultaneous oxidative electrografting of this film still in contact with the aqueous subphase. As opposed to LB films, these films resist ultrasonication and unlike electrografted films, they are organized monolayers by construction. They are characterized by AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy), water contact angle, ellipsometry, XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) IRRAS (Infrared Reflection Absorption Spectroscopy) and GIXD (Grazing Incidence X-ray Diffraction).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
