[paper accepted] SAMs of amide-containing alkanethiols

Collaboration with Prof. Jaegeun Noh (Hanyang University). We examined the surface structure, binding conditions, electrochemical behavior and thermal stability of SAMs of N-(2-mercaptoethyl)heptanamide on Au(111) by STM, XPS and cyclic voltammetry, and followed the structural transitions from the liquid phase to a well-ordered β-phase.
