Study of alkanethiol-based self-assembled monolayers coated with poly(methyl methacrylate) of various tacticity

Abstract

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have a large variety of applications. One particular ap-plication of alkanethiol-based SAMs is tuning the work function of metallic surfaces. In a recent study, it was determined that depositing a poly(methyl methacrylate) layer on selected SAMs further shifts the work function. The effect is sensitive to tacticity and neither the reason behind this nor the exact mechanism of the interaction was determined. The aim of this work is to study the problem by use of molecular dynamics simulations.
