1. Biomolecular interactions at model interfaces : a self-assembled monolayer approach
Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis has been to explore the use of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) in model studies of biomolecular binding at interfaces. Molecular details of interfaces are difficult to address experimentally, and in spite of the fact that interactions in the living system commonly occur at interfaces, e.g. READ MORE

2. Characterization of Self-Assembled Monolayers of Oligo(phenyleneethynylene) Derivatives on Gold
Abstract : Oligo(phenyleneethynylene) (OPE) molecules are a class of fully conjugated aromatic molecules, that attract attention for their application as “molecular wires” in molecular electronic devices. In this thesis work, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) formed from a variety of OPE derivatives have been studied. READ MORE

3. Synthesis of Orthogonally Functionalized Oligosaccharides for Self-assembled Monolayers and as Multimodal Tools in Chemical Biology
Abstract : This thesis covers different topics in the field of synthetic organic chemistry combined with the field of surface science and glycobiology.First, the text presents a series of orthogonally protected oligosaccharides (tri-, penta-, and heptasaccharides) of varying length and structures, which are synthesized with the aim of developing novel heterobifunctional biocompatible cross-linkers.

4. Stimuli-responsive lipid bilayer mimics for protein, virus and cell recognition
Abstract : The most well-studied two-dimensional biomimetic cellular membrane modelsare self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and supported lipid bilayers (SLBs).The former has the advantage of control over ligand density, homogeneity andorientation, allowing unambiguous interaction studies. READ MORE

5. Structure of Self-Assembled Monolayers on Gold Studied by NEXAFS and Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Abstract : Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) provide well-defined and ordered films of molecules spontaneously chemisorbed on a surface. By designing molecules with desired functionalities, such molecular film can be interesting for a range of applications from molecular electronics to catalysis. READ MORE
