Influence of Defects on the Electrical Characteristics of Mercury-Drop Junctions: Self-Assembled Monolayers of n-Alkanethiolates on Rough and Smooth Silver

TL;DR: The mechanisms of failure of the junctions, and the degree and sources of uncertainty in current density, are discussed with respect to a variety of defects that occur within Hg-drop junctions incorporating SAMs on silver.
Journal ArticleDOI

Separation of Nanoparticles in Aqueous Multiphase Systems through Centrifugation

TL;DR: This paper demonstrates the use of aqueous multiphase systems (MuPSs) as media for rate-zonal centrifugation to separate nanoparticles of different shapes and sizes in a synthesis of gold nanorods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multizone Paper Platform for 3D Cell Cultures

TL;DR: A simple method for culture of arrays of thin planar sections of tissues, either alone or stacked to create more complex 3D tissue structures, and to examine the migration of cells in these structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlations between wettability and structure in monolayers of alkanethiols adsorbed on gold

TL;DR: In this paper, long-chain aklanethiols absorb onto gold from solution and from monolayers, and the wettability of the longer chain thiol is correlated with the composition of the monolayer.
