Abstract

We report data from infrared absorption (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies that correlate the molecular conformation of oligo(ethylene glycol) (OEG)-terminated self-assembled alkanethiolate monolayers (SAMs) with the ability of these films to resist protein adsorption. We studied three di...
