Journal ArticleDOI

Charge transport through self-assembled monolayers of compounds of interest in molecular electronics.

Fu Ren F. Fan, +9 more
- 17 Apr 2002 - 
TL;DR: Reversible peak-shaped i-V characteristics were obtained for most of the nitro-based oligo(phenylene ethynylene) SAMs studied here, indicating that part of the conduction mechanism of these junctions involved resonance tunneling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetics of diazonium functionalization of chemically converted graphene nanoribbons.

Alexander Sinitskii, +5 more
- 26 Mar 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that graphene nanoribbons produced by the oxidative unzipping of carbon nanotubes can be chemically functionalized by diazonium salts, and it is shown that functional groups form a thin layer on a GNR and modify its electrical properties.

Laser-Induced Graphene

Ruquan Ye, +2 more
TL;DR: The ease of formation of LIG, its simple scale-up, and its utility for a range of applications highlights the easy transition of this substrate-bound graphene foam into commercial device platforms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymer-Coated Nanoparticles for Enhanced Oil Recovery

Hadi ShamsiJazeyi, +4 more
- 05 Aug 2014 - 
TL;DR: The polymer-coated nanoparticles (PNPs) are an emerging class of materials that may be superior to nanoparticles for EOR due to improved solubility and stability, greater stabilization of foams and emulsions, and more facile transport through porous media as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insertion, Conductivity, and Structures of Conjugated Organic Oligomers in Self-Assembled Alkanethiol Monolayers on Au{111}

M. T. Cygan, +9 more
- 13 Mar 1998 - 
TL;DR: Alkanethiolate self-assembled monolayers on Au{111} are used for the two-dimensional matrix isolation of conjugated organic thiolates, studied for their potential to act as molecular wires.
