18. Owing to the long alkyl chain, alkanethiol monolayers on gold have a relatively low conductivity, as could be demonstrated by suppressing electrochemical processes on SAM-coated gold electrodes. (H. O. Finklea, S. Avery, M. Lynch, T. Furtsch, Langmuir 1987, 3, 409)

22. Au 4fd = intensity of a substrate attenuated by a layer of thickness d. The equation used has been published (C. D. Bain, G. M. Whitesides, J. Phys. Chem. 1989, 93, 1670).
23. For thickness estimation we used a MgKα X-ray source (i.e., Au 4f photoelectrons with kinetic energies of 1169 eV and ¿ = 3.7 nm) (1a) or AlKα (i.e., photoelectrons with kinetic energies of 1402 eV and ¿ = 4.2 nm) (1b, 2, 3). The ¿ values have been calculated by comparing the Au 4f attenuation for SAMs of decane-, octadecane-, and docosanethiols, and agree with the values reported (P. E. Laibinis, C. D. Bain, G. M. Whitesides, J. Phys. Chem. 1991, 95, 7017. O. Dannenberger, K. Weiss, H.-J. Himmel, B. Jäger, M. Buck, C. Wöll, Thin Solid Films 1997, 307, 183) .
