Fabrication and electrochemical application of three-dimensional gold nanoparticles: Self-assembly

Article Abstract:

The fabrication of nanostructured citrate stabilized gold particles (Au NPs) is demonstrated using a layer-by-layer (LBL) technique of a self assembled monolayer of 1,4-benezenedimethanethiol (BDMT). The transmission electron microscopy images showed the formation of repeatedly uniform AuNP layers and the existence of BDMT molecules as cross linkers for the AuNPs was proved by XPS measurements.

Modulation of molecular conductance induced by electrode atomic species and interface geometry

Article Abstract:

A systematic theoretical investigation of the interaction of an organic molecule with gold and palladium electrodes was presented. The results indicate that an optimal choice of the atomic species and contact geometry could lead to significantly enhanced conductance of molecular devices that could serve as a viable alternative to molecular derivatization.
