Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiols and dialkanethiols on gold are key
elements for building many systems and devices with applications in the wide field of …

In this paper, we review and discuss the use of electron spectroscopies to characterize self-
assembled monolayers (SAMs). The review concentrates on thiol-derived monolayers on …

Layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly is a powerful means for fabricating multilayer thin films with
controlled architecture and composition. This feature article discusses different types of …

Improving the sensitivity of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a powerful non‐invasive
medical imaging technique, requires the development of novel contrast agents with a higher …

This volume documents the proceedings of the Second International Symposium on
Polyimides and Other High Temperature Polymers: Synthesis, Characterization and …

Charge transport plays an important role in defining both far-field and near-field optical
response of a plasmonic nanostructure with an ultrasmall built-in nanogap. As the gap size …

The adsorption behavior of 1, 4-benzenedithiol (1, 4-BDT) on colloidal gold and silver
surfaces has been investigated by means of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). 1 …

A novel surface modification procedure for the creation of sulfhydryl-terminated alkanethiol
monolayers that can be used for the attachment of biomolecules onto gold surfaces is …

Functionalized carbon based 2D materials are promising candidates for low cost and
environment friendly electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and …

In the present work, we compare the use of antibodies (Ab) and phages as bioreceptors for
bacteria biosensing by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). With this aim, both …
