22. 9 demonstrate the importance of achiving an oxide-free copper surface before self-assembly as thiol adsorbates exhibit poor interaction with CuO and have been reported to form multilayers when assembled under aerobic conditions (see Keller et al. Thin Solid Films 1994, 244, 799-805.)

30. The increase in methylene intensity is not likely the result of adventitious carbon contamination, as all the samples studied expose low-energy methyl surfaces that are resistant to the adsorption of foreign species.
