Abstract

Ordered surface adlayers of diacetylene-containing molecules were formed using amide hydrogen-bonding interactions with a pre-formed self-assembled monolayer on gold. Photopolymerization of the diacetylene molecules in the adlayer results in enhanced solvent and processing stability of the adlayer. Patterning of the base monolayer using soft lithography techniques allows patterning of the adlayer as well, and may lead to methods for templating soluble two-dimensional monolayer sheets.
