Abstract

The authors have undertaken studies which characterize the nature of the interactions of adsorbates on organic solids. The substrates in these experiments are well defined model solids derived from the self assembly of various substituted alkyl thiols on Au(111). The structures of these complex phases have been determined by a number of techniques including quantitative Infrared Spectroscopy (IRS). This paper describes the authors' recent efforts to characterize the interfaces formed between these materials and other adsorbates, especially water and various polymers. The influence of temperature on the structure of these phases is also described.
