Self Assembled Monolayers

Adhesion between transferrable monolayer and substrate ?

Submitted by Xianghui Zhang on

 

Is there any research about  interfacial adhesion of  transferrable monolayers and substrates ? I found it's quite different from the rough surface model, because the monolayer is flexible enough to match the roughness of surface. Can one determine the separation value from the different roughness of pure substrate and substrate with a monolayer ?

Can someone give me some clue ? Thanks a lot!
