Book excerpt: Manuela Mura's thesis is devoted to ab initio studies of self-assembled organic molecules on a gold surface. This area of research is particularly vibrant because of the various applications such studies have in nanoscience and surface chemistry and physics. In this thesis Manuela Mura uses theory to suggest atomistic models for the observed assembled and she proposes an assembly mechanism. The methods and results developed as part of this work will be of wide interest to physicists and chemists working on the assemblies of organic molecules on crystal surfaces.

Book excerpt: The embodiments disclosed herein include all-electron control over a chemical attachment and the subsequent self-assembly of an organic molecule into a well-ordered three-dimensional monolayer on a metal surface. The ordering or assembly of the organic molecule may be through electron excitation. Hot-electron and hot-hole excitation enables tethering of the organic molecule to a metal substrate, such as an alkyne group to a gold surface. All-electron reactions may allow a direct control over the size and shape of the self-assembly, defect structures and the reverse process of molecular disassembly from single molecular level to mesoscopic scale.

Book excerpt: The work in this thesis is focused on molecules that are able to self-assemble on different surfaces by forming two-dimensional templates stabilised via double or triple hydrogen bonding. In particular, assemblies of molecules such as melamine, perylene tetra-carboxylic di-imide (PTCDI), perylene tetra-carboxylic di-anhydride (PTCDA), naphthalene tetracarboxylic-dianhydride (NTCDA) and naphthalene tetracarboxylic diimide (NTCDI) are studied in detail. The aim is to give a complete characterisation of the supramolecular networks, taking into account the balance between the molecule-molecule and molecule-substrate interactions. All our assembly calculations are done within the gas phase approximation, i.e. without taking into account the surface, which is a good approximation assuming that the molecules are quite mobile on the surface. Using a systematic method based on considering all possible hydrogen bond connections between the molecules we investigate planar superstructures that organic molecules can form in one and two dimensions. The structures studied are based on two or more molecules per unit cell and all structures considered, assemble in fiat periodic patterns. Most of the calculations are performed using the density functional theory method. We show that the calculated lattice parameters of the structures considered compare well with those measured experimentally. To specifically check the applicability of the gas-phase approximation, we systematically investigated the adsorption of the molecules on the Au (111) metal surface with the particular attention being paid to the characterisation of the potential energy surface of our molecules on this surface. We performed these calculations using both a conventional functional (PBE) which does not include the dispersion interaction, and the newly developed vdW-DF method which does.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Materials Nanoarchitectonics: From Integrated Molecular Systems to Advanced Devices provides the latest information on the design and molecular manipulation of self-organized hierarchically structured systems using tailor-made nanoscale materials as structural and functional units. The book is organized into three main sections that focus on molecular design of building blocks and hybrid materials, formation of nanostructures, and applications and devices. Bringing together emerging materials, synthetic aspects, nanostructure strategies, and applications, the book aims to support further progress, by offering different perspectives and a strong interdisciplinary approach to this rapidly growing area of innovation. This is an extremely valuable resource for researchers, advanced students, and scientists in industry, with an interest in nanoarchitectonics, nanostructures, and nanomaterials, or across the areas of nanotechnology, chemistry, surface science, polymer science, electrical engineering, physics, chemical engineering, and materials science. Offers a nanoarchitectonic perspective on emerging fields, such as metal-organic frameworks, porous polymer materials, or biomimetic nanostructures Discusses different approaches to utilizing "soft chemistry" as a source for hierarchically organized materials Offers an interdisciplinary approach to the design and construction of integrated chemical nano systems Discusses novel approaches towards the creation of complex multiscale architectures

Book excerpt: Surface-assisted self-assembly of architectures is showing promise for the development of more efficient technologies and processes related to the fields of organic electronics, photovoltaics and heterogeneous catalysis. The detailed understanding of the intermolecular and molecule-substrate interactions that are responsible for resulting surface architectures is necessary for the rational design molecular systems. The experiments detailed within this thesis show that through careful tuning of organic molecules significant changes are observed in the 2-D self-assembly, 3-D stacking, or metal-organic coordination properties.

Book excerpt: Within nanoscience, an emerging discipline is the study of the physics and chemistry of single molecules. Molecules may be considered as the ultimate building blocks, and are therefore interesting for the development of molecular devices and for surface functionalization. Thus, it is interesting to study their properties when adsorbed on a suitable substrate such as a solid or crystal surface, and also for their potential applications in nano- or molecular-electronics and nanosensing. Investigations have been made possible by the advent of high resolution surface imaging and characterization techniques, commonly referred to as Scanning Probe Microscopes.This book focuses on the fascinating properties of the single molecules, and the difference between single molecules and ensembles of molecules is emphasized. As the first book intended for graduate courses in the field, after each chapter, students should be able to answer the question: “What physical or chemical properties do you learn from a single molecule in this particular context?” Contributed by experts across the disciplines, the book provides useful reference material for specialized practitioners in surface science, nanoscience and nanoelectronics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The'rsttwovolumesinthis"TemplatesinChemistry"serieshavefocused on templates that controlsolution-phase reactions. Among the templates d- cussed in these two volumes were convex and concave templates that mediate the formation of (macro)cyclic molecules and mechanically bound molecules withtheir intriguingintertwined topology.Also,three-dimensional templates that are used to imprint polymers and that organize compounds in the solid state for predestined reactions have been included in the earlier volumes. In the present volume, we extend thetemplate topologytosurfaces that act asmatricesforthecontrolledgrowthoftwo-dimensionalarrays.Naturally,the typical methods for the characterization of surfaces such as scanning probe microscopyare prominently represented in this volume. Differentlateralinteractionssuchascoordinativebondsorhydrogenbo- ing play a major role in assembling the 2D networks on surfaces in addition to the interaction of the samples with the underlying substrates. Many p- nomena that are also encountered in solution can be directly visualized on surfaces: Reversible self-assembly processes lead to the formation of large structures through multiple recognition of small building blocks and cul- nate in the engineering of crystals in two dimensions. Self-sorting processes drive the formation of highly ordered arrays through the geometric ?t of the available components. Either the surface itself is the template, for example, when clusters grow on metal oxide ?lms, or colloidal templates control the formationof macroporousnetworksonthe substrate. This volume highlightsa selection of actual complementary aspects of s- facetemplates.Webelievethatthescopeandthevarietyoftopicscoveredinthis volume will attract readers fromdifferent communities such as supramole- larchemistry,materialsciences,surfacechemistry,surfacephysicsandsurface technologyandwehopetheywillenjoythisnewvolumeonTemplatesinCh- istry.
