Mono- and bifunctional self-assembly monolayers (SAM) having a phosphonic acid (PA) anchoring group were investigated with respect to their film formation and interface dipolar properties on the nanometer scale. Films were grown by physical vapor phase deposition onto muscovite mica under UHV conditions and compared to liquid phase deposited PA-SAMs formed on mica and oxidic substrates such as SiO2.
The local growth behavior was analyzed using non-contact scanning force microcopy (nc-SFM). We find a similar growth behavior for the two different deposition methods used here. The layer formation follows three steps: island nucleation, aggregation, and coalescence. Furthermore, we inspected our PA-SAMs with respect to the build-up of an interface and molecular dipole by simultaneously complementing our nc-SFM measurements with frequency modulated Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM).
