Abstract
Using scanning tunneling microscope, we have investigated the formation of Au nanoclusters on self-assembled monolayers
of octanethiol (CH3(CH2)7SH) molecules modified with octanedithiol (HS(CH2)8SH). By changing the modification condition
and the amount of Au deposition, it is found that the density and the size of the clusters can be controlled. The cluster-formation
mechanism is discussed.
