Abstract

An extremely mild and practical method to attach organic monolayers on flat silicon surfaces by using visible light (447 nm; see scheme) was developed and the mechanism investigated. With high-resolution angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (ARXPS) depth profiles of the elements in the monolayer (≈2 nm thickness) were obtained.
