Wikipedia Overview
Self-assembled monolayers (SAM) are assemblies of organic molecules that form spontaneously on surfaces by adsorption and organize themselves into more or less distinct domains. In some cases, molecules that form the monolayer do not interact strongly with the substrate. This is the case for porphyrins on HOPG and two-dimensional supramolecular networks of PTCDA on gold. In other cases, the head group has a strong affinity for the substrate and anchors the molecule. Such an SAM consisting of a head group, chain, and functional end group is depicted in Figure 1. Common head groups include thiols, silanes, and phosphonates.
