Light-Controlled Nitric Oxide Generation from a Novel Self-Assembled Monolayer on a Gold Surface This work was supported by MURST “cofinanziamento di programmi di ricerca di rilevante interesse nazionale” (Project: Mechanisms of Photoinduced Processes in Organized Systems). We also thank Prof. S. Giuffrida for his critical reading of the manuscript, Prof. V. Amico for his useful suggestions, and the referees for constructive comments.

Collisions of N+ and N2+ with C3 hydrocarbons, represented by a self assembled monolayer of propanethiol on a polycrystalline gold surface, were investigated by experiments over the incident energy range between 5 eV and 100 eV.

Duplex Formation

Self-assembled monolayers of sulfur-terminated oligonucleotide duplexes were formed on flat gold surfaces, either by exposure of a self-assembled monolayer bearing one oligonucleotide strand to the complementary strand or by preformation of a oligonucleotide duplex that was then deposited on a fresh gold surface. Virtually identical spectral behavior was observed whether the duplex was produced before deposition or by in situ complementary association. With a duplex bearing an appropriate pyrene end-label, the resulting thin film was photoresponsive. Surface emission measurements show no evidence for pyrene aggregation on the modified surfaces. The polarity of the photocurrent, reflecting photoinduced electron transfer initiated by photoexcitation of pyrene, is opposite that expected from the oligonucleotide-mediated reduction of the appended pyrene excited state.Key words: oligonucleotide, self-assembled monolayer, duplex formation, photoelectrochemistry, surface emission.

We report on the distribution of mixed self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) composed of biotinylated and diluent alkylthiolates for streptavidin immobilization. Two thiol derivatives, 11-mercapto-1-undecanol (MUOH) and 11-mercaptoundecanoic-(8-biotinylamido-3,6-dioxaoctyl) amide (MBDA), were employed for mixed SAM. These thiols formed self-assembled monolayer without local domain, and streptavidins were immobilized onto biotinylated gold surface without nonspecific binding. In order to find the optimized condition of immobilization of streptavidin, we controlled the mixing ratio of two kind thiols by colorimetric detection assay, and the immobilization was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and ellipsometer.
