Tuning the hole injection barrier at the organic/metal interface with self-assembled functionalized aromatic thiols
Article Abstract:
Self-assembled functionalized aromatic thiols, oligophenylenes composed of building blocks of dimethoxy-substituted phenylenes, perfluoro-substituted phenylenes and a terminal thiol group, are used to tune the hole injection barrier of copper(II) phthalocyanine (CuPc) on Au(111). The molecular orientations of CuPc on self-assembled monolayer (SAM)/Au(III) have indicated an upright configuration of CuPc on SAMs, facilitating their effective incorporation in organic field-effect transistor (OFET) and other planar organic devices.

Size and temperature dependence of surface plasmon absorption of gold nanoparticles induced by tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(II)
Article Abstract:
Surface plasmon absorption (color) of Au nanoparticles highly depends on its size, shape, and surrounding surface environment, providing a great opportunity for the development of Au nanoparticles as a probe for chemical and biochemical sensing and as a building block for nano-optical devices.
