Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembled monolayers of thiols and dithiols on gold: new challenges for a well-known system
TL;DR: The nature of the molecule-gold interface, whose chemistry and structure remain elusive, the self-assembly process on planar and irregular surfaces, and on nanometre-sized objects, and the chemical reactivity and thermal stability of these systems in ambient and aqueous solutions are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Chemistry of the Sulfur–Gold Interface: In Search of a Unified Model
Evangelina Laura Pensa,Emiliano Cortés,Gastón Corthey,Pilar Carro,Carolina Vericat,Mariano H. Fonticelli,Guillermo Benítez,Aldo A. Rubert,Roberto Carlos Salvarezza +8 more
TL;DR: A state-of-the-art analysis of the structure and chemical composition of the sulfur-gold interface at the atomic level remains elusive and the search for a unified model of the chemistry of the S-Au interface illustrates the difficulty of determining the surface chemistry at the nanoscale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembled monolayers of thiolates on metals: A review article on sulfur-metal chemistry and surface structures
Carolina Vericat,María Elena Vela,Gastón Corthey,Evangelina Laura Pensa,Emiliano Cortés,Mariano H. Fonticelli,Francisco J. Ibañez,Guillermo Benítez,Pilar Carro,Roberto Carlos Salvarezza +9 more
TL;DR: A review article on fundamental aspects of thiolate self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on the (111 and 100) surfaces of the Cu and Ni groups is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced stability of thiolate self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on nanostructured gold substrates.
Emiliano Cortés,Aldo A. Rubert,Guillermo Benítez,Pilar Carro,María Elena Vela,Roberto Carlos Salvarezza +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that nanostructured gold exhibits higher resistance to SAM degradation and increased electrochemical stability against thiolate desorption in relation to polycrystalline preferred oriented Au(111).
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth Mode Transition Involving a Potential-Dependent Isotropic to Anisotropic Surface Atom Diffusion Change. Gold Electrodeposition on HOPG followed by STM
H. Martin,Pilar Carro,A. Hernández Creus,Sergio Rodríguez González,Roberto Carlos Salvarezza,Alejandro Jorge Arvia +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the electrodeposition of gold on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) from acid aqueous solutions was studied by using electrochemical techniques complemented with ex-situ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM).
