Study ofWet Surface Activation Routes to Enable the Deposition of Monomolecular Organic Thin Films on k 2.0 Porous Dielectrics

S. Armini, J. Loyo Prado, M. Krishtab, T. Conard, J. Meersschaut, Q. T. Le, P. Verdonck, and M. R. Baklanov Abstract This paper explores the effects of different wet surface treatments on low dielectric constant (low-k) materials and the consequences for the growth behavior of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) from 11-cyanoundecyltrichlorosilane precursor on these modified substrates.

Spatially controlled immobilisation of biomolecules: A complete approach in green chemistry

Eva Grinenval, Guillaume Nonglaton, Françoise Vinet. Abstract The development of “green” sensors is a challenging task in the field of biomolecule sensing, for example in the detection of cardiac troponin-I (cTnI). In the present work a complete approach in green chemistry was developed to create chemically active patterns for the immobilisation of biological probes. This […]
