Halogen-bond driven self-assembly of perfluorocarbon monolayers on silicon nitride

Nicola Marzari, Antonio Abate, Ngoc Linh Nguyen

The self-assembly of a single layer of organic molecules on a substrate is a powerful strategy to modify surfaces and interfacial properties. Thiolates, silanes, phosphonates and carboxylates are widely used head-groups to link organic molecules to specifi ...

Equipartition of Energy Defines the Size-Thickness Relationship in Liquid-Exfoliated Nanosheets

Nicola Marzari, Davide Campi

Liquid phase exfoliation is a commonly used method to produce 2D nanosheets from a range of layered crystals. However, such nanosheets display broad size and thickness distributions and correlations between area and thickness, issues that limit nanosheet a ...

Long-lived Photo-Charges in 1D Helical Organic Semiconductor Nanostructures

Regina Judith Hafner

The formation of photoexcited states in organic semiconductors, their separation into long-lived or stable charge carriers, as well as the charge transport are critical processes relevant to several important research fields and emerging technologies. Whil ...

3D to 2D reorganization of silver-thiol nanostructures, triggered by solvent vapor annealing

Francesco Stellacci, Sergio Allegri

Metal-organic composites are of great interest for a wide range of applications. The control of their structure remains a challenge, one of the problems being a complex interplay of covalent and supramolecular interactions. This paper describes the self-as ...

Self-assembly and redox induced phase transfer of gold nanoparticles at the water-propylene carbonate interface

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Evgeny Smirnov

Citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles were found to spontaneously self-assemble into a lustrous film at a bare water–propylene carbonate interface after vigorous shaking, due to the extremely low interfacial tension. The presence of an electron donor, tetr ...

Royal Society of Chemistry2017

Strategies for forming liquid dispersions of nanomaterials typically focus on retarding reaggregation, for example via surface modification, as opposed to promoting the thermodynamically driven dissolution common for molecule-sized species. Here we demonst ...

On-Surface Assembly and Reactions of Organic Molecules in Ultra-High Vacuum

Claudius Morchutt

This thesis comprises the study of two types of 2D materials, those stabilized by non-covalent and those by covalent interactions. They are synthesized and studied on well-defined metallic surfaces in ultra-high vacuum (UHV). The self-assembly of terephtha ...
