Self-assembled monolayer field-effect transistors (SAMFETs) of BTBT functionalized phosphonic acids are fabricated. The molecular design enables device operation with charge carrier mobilities up to 10(-2) cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) and for the first time SAMFETs which operate on rough, flexible PEN substrates even under mechanical substrate bending.

In this study, we demonstrate the formation of a self-assembled microgel double layer on an electrode surface, utilizing the ability to form electro-responsive, reversible inclusion complexes between microgels modified with ferrocene and β-cyclodextrin in these systems. The bottom layer was based on microgels containing ferrocene moieties and derivatives of cysteine. The presence of the amino acid derivative enabled the formation of the well-packed monolayer on the gold surface through chemisorption, while ferrocene was responsible for electroactivity.

This study introduces an innovative electrochemical biosensor, engineered through the functionalization screen-printed electrode (SPE) with a coordination complex comprised of 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) and copper ions (Cu), achieving precise quantitative determination of glyphosate. Electrodepositing gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) onto the electrode surface, forming a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of 4-MBA via thiol-gold interactions, and immobilizing Cu via coordination bonding with the monolayer, finalizing the electrochemical biosensor construction as Cu/4-MBA/AuNPs/SPE. The successful modification of the biosensor interface is confirmed through scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and electrochemical characterization.

The effect of solution pH on the formation and surface structure of 2-pyrazinethiolate (2-PyzS) self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) formed by the adsorption of 2-mercaptopyrazine (2-PyzSH) on Au(111) was investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and X-ray photoelectron microscopy (XPS). Molecular-scale STM observations clearly revealed that 2-PyzS SAMs at pH 2 had a short-range ordered phase of (2√3 × √21)R30° structure with a standing-up adsorption structure. However, 2-PyzS SAMs at pH 8 had a very unique long-range ordered phase, showing a "ladder-like molecular arrangement" with bright repeating rows.

Self-assembled monolayers (SAM) as hole transport layers have been widely used in high-efficiency inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs) exceeded 26 %. However, the poor coverage and non-uniform distribution on the substrate of SAM further restrict the improvement of device performance. Herein, we utilize the mixed SAM strategy via the MeO-2PACz along with perfluorotripropylamine (FC-3283) to improve the SAM coverage, aiming to accelerate the carrier transport, promote the perovskite growth, regulate the surface energy levels and suppress the nonradiative recombination.

Herein, we report the development and characterisation of an electrochemical biosensor with a polypyrrole (Ppy)-based molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for the serological detection of the recombinant nucleocapsid protein of SARS-CoV-2 (rN). The electrochemical biosensor utilises a Ppy-based MIP formed on a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) at the gold interface to enhance Ppy layer stability on the screen-printed electrode (SPE). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) were employed for the electrochemical characterisation of screen-printed gold electrodes (SPGEs) modified with MIP or non-imprinted polymer (NIP) layers.
