“…For both molecules, in addi'on to the main N 1s peak associated to the C=N bond, a second peak is also observed and is likely associated to a "coordinated-like" form (C=N...Au) of nitrogen (sec'on 5 in the Suppor'ng Informa'on). This N 1s peak spliong is observed when the N atoms interact with a metal surface, [28][29][30] a possible situa'on considering the large 'lt angle of the molecules inferred from thickness measurements and calcula'ons (geometry op'miza'on, vide infra). This "coordinated-like" peak is further used as a fingerprint of a strong interac'on between the molecule and the substrate in correla'on with the electron transport proper'es of the molecular junc'ons (vide infra).…”
Two new photo-switchable terphenylthiazoles molecules are synthesized and self-assembled as monolayers on Au and on ferromagnetic Co electrodes. The electron transport properties probed by conductive atomic force microscopy in ultra-high...

“…5d, MBI molecules adsorbed on the surface of Ag nanoparticles. Therefore, the MBI concentration was low at the SERS substrate surface and a low SERS signal was detected in the backside geometry [22]. MBI concentration at the substrate/polyelectrolyte film interface increased in Section 2 when the Ag nanoparticles were most probably almost covered.…”

“…SERS studies of polymer/metal interfaces were reported for investigations aiming at modelling the adsorption of polymers by coating the organic molecules on SERS active substrates [22,23]. The application of SERS in processes related to corrosion or diffusion through polymer/metal interfaces is not common.…”

“…1a). The permeability of PAA/PAH films for MBI uptake from aqueous solution was investigated using in situ backside surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (in situ SERS) [22] and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). In situ SERS enabled the detection of MBI adsorbing to the SERS substrate/ polyelectrolyte interface.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
