Abstract

We describe the two dimensional structure of n-Alkyl Thiols, CH3(CH217SH(C18, self-assembled on the surfaces of Au(111) and Ag(111). By using Grazing Incidence X-ray Diffraction (GIXD), we show that C18 forms ordered and dense monolayers. Although the properties of Au and Ag are very similar (for instance, the lattice constants of Au an Ag are nearly identical), the structure of C18on these two substrates is very different.
