Organic monolayers were fabricated onto Au(l l l) substrate by self-assembly method using dipyridinium. Also, organic single molecule in the organic monolayers was selected to measure the current-voltage (I-V) curves by using the ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (UHV-STM). The organic molecule used in the experiment was dipyridinium dithioacetate, which contains thiol functional group and can be self-assembled easily onto Au(l l l) substrate. The concentration of dipyridinium dithioacetate for self-assembly procedure was I [mM/L]. To confirm the formation of self-assembled mono layers (SAMs), the differences of thickness of the self-assembled organic monolayers were observed by using an ellipsometer, and the morphology and I-V curves of the SAMs were investigated by using UHV-STM. The applied voltages were from -2 [V] to +2 [V], temperature was 300 [K]. The vacuum for measuring current of the organic single molecule was 6 $\times$ 10$^{-8}$ [Torr]. As a result, properties of the negative differential resistance (NDR) in constant voltage were found.

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) prepared by sulfur-containing organic molecules on metal surfaces have drawn much attention for more than two decades because of their technological applications in wetting, chemical and biosensors, molecular recognition, nanolithography, and molecular electronics. In this talk, we will present self-assembly mechanism and two-dimensional (2D) structures of various organic thiol SAMs on Au(111), which are mainly demonstrated by molecular-scale scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) observation. In addition, we will provide some idea how to control 2D molecular arrangements of organic SAMs. For instance, the formation and surface structure of pentafluorobenzenethiols (PFBT) self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au(111) formed from various experimental conditions were examined by means of STM. Although it is well known that PFBT molecules on metal surfaces do not form ordered SAMs, we clearly revealed for the first time that adsorption of PFBT on Au(111) at $75^{\circ}C$ for 2 h yields long-range, well-ordered self-assembled monolayers having a $(2{\times}5\sqrt{13})R30^{\circ}$ superlattice. Benzenethiols (BT) SAMs on gold usually have disordered phases, however, we have clearly demonstrated that the displacement of preadsorbed cyclohexanethiol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au(111) by BT molecules can be a successful approach to obtain BT SAMs with long-range ordered domains. Our results will provide new insight into controlling the structural order of BT or PFBT SAMs, which will be very useful in precisely tailoring the interface properties of metal surfaces in electronic devices.

We have investigates a surface pressure, a displacement current and a charge measurement by distance of between electrode 1 and water surface of organic monolayers. And the displacement current was generated during compression of Arachidic acid mono1ayers at a air-water interface. The result from our work show that the displacement current of a Langmuir(L) film for Arachidic acid monolayers has the different maximum points according to the electrode distance. We are known that the displacement current and a charge was generated in inverse proportion to electrode distance d.

Incorporation of solid electrodes frequently involves plasma-based processing. The effect of plasma can influence the physical characteristics, depending on the magnitude in plasma. The undesired feature of plasma-induced damage should be prevented in characterizing the ultra-thin materials, such as ultra-thin films and organic monolayers. The current work at first proves the applicability of a liquid phase electrode in the electrical/dielectric properties through comparative work using Al and Hg on ultrathin $Al_2O_3$ films deposited through atomic layer deposition at low temperature: Two types of metals such as Aluminum (Al) and mercury (Hg) were used as electrodes in $Al_2O_3$ thin films in order to investigate the effect of electrode preparation on the current-voltage characteristics and impedance features as a function of thickness in $Al_2O_3$ film thickness. The success of Hg in $Al_2O_3$ thin films is applied to the AC and DC characterization of the organic monolayers obtained using the Langmuir-Blodgett method. From the DC current-voltage characteristics, the diode-like response is found to originate from the bulk response of the organic materials, evidenced by the fact and the capacitance is inversely related to the absolute thickness of organic layers.

Apical to basal transport of organic cations (OCs) such as tributylmethylammonium (TBuMA), triethyimethylammonium (TEMA). 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP), and berberine across Caco-2 cell monolayers was measured to elucidate the intestinal absorption of OCs. Basal to apical transport of MPP and berberine was larger than apical to basal transport and showed temperature dependency and concentration dependency. indicating that MPP and berberine are secreted into the inteslinal lumen.

It is well known that the state of existence of molecules on the surface of water changes during compression of the molecules. Electric methods, such as the measurement of the surface potential or displacement current, are also useful for investigating dynamic changes of the molecular state on the water surface during compression. Maxwell-Displacement-Current(MDC) measuring technique has been applied to the study of monolayers of Arachidic acid and L-$\alpha$-Dimyristoyl Phosphatidylcholine(L-$\alpha$-DMPC). The displacement current was generated from monolayers on a water surface by monolayer compression. Displacement current was generated in the gas state, gas/liquid state, and liquid state in the course of monolayer compression. The researchers examined diplacement current of electric conduction organic monolayer generated due to orient change of monolayers alkylchain.
