Abstract

We attempt to investigate morphology of self-assembled dipyridinium dithioacetate on Au(111) substrate by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy(STM). Also, we measured electrical properties using Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy(STS). Sample that use this experiment acquires thiol function beside quantity by dipyridinium dithioacetate, is structure that can be self-assembled easily to Au(111) substrate. The same self-assembly procedure was used for two different concentrations, 0.5mmol/ml and 1mmol/ml. Dilute density of sample by 0.5mmol/ml, 1mmol/ml and observed dipyridinium dithioacetate's image by STM after self-assembled on Au(111) substrate. The structure of Tip/SAMs/Au(111) has been used measurement for electrical properties(i-v) using STM. The current-voltage measurement result, observed negative differential resistance(NDR) properties.
