Abstract

Ordered normal-alkane monolayers of lamellar structures are found to form in the interface between alkane solutions and the reconstructed Au (111) surfaces. The boundaries of the lamellae may exhibit a zigzag shape. In the alkane monolayers, two kinds of packing of the alkane molecules are observed. The packing patterns are correlated to the structure of the gold surface and the molecular lengths of the alkanes. The orientation of alkane molecules is gently disturbed by the reconstructed gold ridges. Furthermore, the lamellar boundaries are located on the elbow positions of the reconstructed gold surfaces for long-chain alkanes. These results demonstrate that the structures of self-assembled monolayers of normal alkanes are sensitive to the structures of the Au (111) surfaces.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
