Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance studies of adsorption and desorption of self-assembled monolayers of alkyl thiols on gold

摘要: The adsorption and desorption behavior of several long chain alkyl thiols on gold electrodes were studied using the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). rate self-assembled monolayer (SAM) from various nonaqueous solutions was determined by EQCM to monitor mass change at electrode surface caused formation SAM. method also allowed for monitoring due reductive Significantly different observed SAM in acetonitrile (ACN) dimethylformamide (DMF)
