Structure of an Ordered Self-Assembled Monolayer of Docosyl Mercaptan on Gold(111) by Surface X-ray Diffraction

Abstract

We report here the first surface X-ray diffraction study of self-assembled monolayers on gold(111), providing new information about both in-plane and out-of-plane structure, and substantiating the high degree of order, both in the film and in its relation to the gold substrate. © 1991, American Chemical Society.
