Abstract:
Self-assembled monolayer of two azobenzene-derived alkanethiols with different terminal alkyl chain lengths (shortly as C8C3SH and C1C4SH) on gold were studied using atomic force microscopy. The C8C3SH SAMs showed a very regular packing structure with a lattice constant of a=0.57±0.04 nm, b=0.73±0.06 nm and θ=120±10°, mainly domianted by the terminated alkyl chains. On the other hand, the C1C4SH SAMs exhibited a number of different packing domains on the gold surface. The closest packing lattice was a=0.37±0.04 nm, b=0.47±0.02 nm, and θ=,107±6°, most probably representing the aggregation of azobenzene chromophoren. Another two typical lattices observed were a=0.65±0.03 nm, b=0.72±0.03 nm, θ=120±2°, and a=0.47±0.03 nm.b=0.47±0.03 nm.θ=100±10°, respectively. The packing structure of C1C4SH monolayers on gold is believed to be dominated by the azobenzene chromophore.
