Study on the Electrochemical Behavior of the Viologen Monolayers by Different Chemical Structure

분자구조에 따른 Viologen 단분자막의 전기화학적 특성 연구

The electrochemical behavior of vilogen self-assembled monolayer has been investigated with QCM, which has been known as ng order mass detector. The self-assembly process of viologen was monitored using resonant frequency(${\Delta}F$) and resonant resistance(R). The QCM measurements indicated a mass adsorption for viologen assembling on the gold surface with a frequency change about 300, 135 Hz and calculated its surface coverage($\Gamma$) to be $5.02{\times}10^{-9}$ and $1.64{\times}10^{-9}mol/cm^2$. Also a reversible redox process was observed and analyzed with an ionic interaction at the Viologen/solution interface using ${\Delta}F$.
