SURFACE MODIFICATION USING HYDRIDOSILANES TO PREPARE MONOLAYERS

摘要

A method of modifying a surface is disclosed. The method includes contacting the surface with a hydridosilane under conditions and for a time sufficient to form a covalent bond between a silicon atom of the hydridosilane and the oxygen atom of a hydroxyl group on the surface. The hydridosilane has the formulawhere at least one of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd is H, and at least one of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd is not H.
