Abstract:
Simple devices that contain alkanethiolate monolayers sandwiched between conducting films were prepared by fixing a gold film to the surface of an alkanethiolate monolayer (on a gold substrate) with silver paint. These devices, and similar devices that did not contain alkanethiolate monolayers, were tested as resistors in d.c . circuits. The devices that contained octadecanethiolate monolayers had resistances of approximately 1012 Ω, 10 orders of magnitude higher than the resistance of devices that contained no monolayers. Sulfur- terminated alkanethiolate monolayers were prepared by treatment

This study examined the effect of boronation on the transepithelial transport and metabolism of three glycine-phenylalanine dipeptides in Caco-2 and HCT-8 cell monolayers. The three dipeptides exhibited passive transport characteristics in the monolayer systems. However, metabolism of the boronated dipeptides did occur, but to a lesser extent than the non-boronated glycine-phenylalanine dipeptide. The same metabolic scheme was seen in both cell monolayer system, but greater metabolism

Abstract:
Monolayered, semiconducting MoS2 and their transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) families are promising and low-cost materials for hydrogen generation through electrolytes (HER, hydrogen evolution reaction) due to their high activities and electrochemical stability during the reaction. However, there is still a lack of understanding in identifying the underlying mechanism responsible for improving the electrocatalytic properties of theses monolayers. In this work, we investigated the significance of controlling carrier densities in a MoS2 monolayer and in turn the corresponding electrocatal

These monolayers are formed by the self-assembly of organic molecules at the solid/liquid or air/water interface and monolayers with the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect have the potential to be used as transparent fluorescent materials.

Abstract:
Gold-assisted exfoliation can fabricate centimeter- or larger-sized monolayers of van der Waals (vdW) semiconductors, which is desirable for their applications in electronic and optoelectronic devices. However, there is still a lack of control over the exfoliation processes and a limited understanding of the atomic-scale mechanisms. Here, we tune the MoS2-Au interface using controlled external pressure and reveal two atomic-scale prerequisites for successfully producing large-area monolayers of MoS2. The first is the formation of strong MoS2-Au interactions to anchor the top MoS2 monolayer to

Despite their importance in self-assembly processes, the influence of charged counterions on the geometry of self-assembled organic monolayers and their direct localisation within the monolayers has been given little attention.

Surface charge transfer has been widely used as a technique to control the concentration of free charge in 2D semiconductors, but its estimation and the impact on the optoelectronic properties of the material remain a challenge.
