Self-Assembly and Self-Assembled Monolayers in Micro- and Nanofabrication
TL;DR: Despite the extraordinary success of current techniques for microfabrication, new techniques are needed as mentioned in this paper for large scale, high volume processing, and other considerations such as capital and processing costs, waste management, environmental concerns, and the degree of perfection of the final structures may also force the development of new methods for micro fabrication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluorination, and Tunneling across Molecular Junctions
TL;DR: The decrease in the rate of charge transport in SAMs with R(F) groups (relative to homologous R(H) groups) is plausibly due to an increase in the height of the tunneling barrier at the T//Ga2O3 interface, and/or to weak van der Waals interactions at that interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
The chemistry of carbanions. XIII. The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of various methylmagnesium derivatives and related substances
Journal ArticleDOI
Lack of effect of the length of oligoglycine- and oligo(ethylene glycol)-derived para-substituents on the affinity of benzenesulfonamides for carbonic anhydrase ii in solution
TL;DR: The authors' efforts to design tight-binding inhibitors based on the PLS motif represent an attempt to increase the area of molecular surface of the inhibitor in contact with the protein, while retaining the desirable structural features of P and without paying an unacceptable price in free energy for the linking group (especially in unfavorable conformation entropy).

TL;DR: In this paper, the fabrication of ∼80 nm structures in silicon, silicon dioxide, and gold substrates by exposing the substrates to a beam of metastable argon atoms in the presence of dilute vapors of trimethylpentaphenyltrisiloxane, the dominant constituent of diffusion pump oil used in these experiments was described.
