15. 12TS onto copper in water at 40 °C or in ethanol at 23 °C. Longer exposures (∼30 min) resulted in no significant improvement in barrier properties. Exposure times could not be greatly increased due to the observation of multilayers for times greater than 45 min.
16. SAMs formed in water at 40 °C resulted in films with comparable resistance and improved capacitance in approximately one sixth the time required for films formed in water at room temperature. Additional studies at 50 and 60 °C showed little improvement over 40 °C, as indicated by comparable IR spectra and resistance/capacitance values from EIS spectra.
