A Solid Ag Film Deposited from Solution on Self-assembled Mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) Monolayer

摘要

Mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) bearing mercapto groups was used to form self-assembly monolayers (SAMs) on glass substrates by solution extraction. SEM, XRD and rubbing test analysis illustrated that the Ag film on the SAMs-modified glass was more durable than that on the commonly-modified glass and that the crystallinity of Ag film on the SAMs-modified glass was identical with those of the Ag film on the commonly-modified glass and pure Ag.
