This coupling involved the formation of an amide bond between the carboxylic acid moiety of 12-PDA to the amine group of a 5′-aminopropyl-labeled single strand of DNA. The self-assembled monolayer of 12-PDA and surface-attached oligonucleotides were characterized by X-ray photoelectron and reflectance FTIR spectroscopy. Detection of selective surface DNA hybridization was achieved by labeling the target ssDNA with gold nanoparticles. The presence of gold nanoparticles was probed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, stripping voltammetry, atomic force microscopy, thermography, photoelectrochemistry (chronoamperometry) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). CV was used to successfully detect DNA hybridization for nanoparticle concentrations as low as 10 pM when using the gold nanoparticles bound to an ITO electrode as catalysts for the electrochemical oxidation of FeCl2. The studies described here provided the basis for surface attachment methodology for various electrochemical and thermographic sensing methods that use ITO thin films as a substrate.}, number={2}, journal={SENSORS AND ACTUATORS B-CHEMICAL}, author={Moses, Selina and Brewer, Scott H. and Kraemer, Stephan and Fuierer, Ryan R. and Lowe, Lisa B. and Agbasi, Chiamaka and Sauthier, Marc and Franzen, Stefan}, year={2007}, month={Aug}, pages={574–580} } @misc{gorman_feldheim_fuierer_2005, title={Gradient fabrication to direct transport on a surface}, volume={6,972,155}, publisher={Washington, DC: U.S. Patent and Trademark Office}, author={Gorman, C.

Because the current used in STM feedback is based on tunneling, an increase in the dimensions of the tip substrate gap is expected to result in an exponential change in the current. This phenomenon translates into order-of-magnitude changes in the tunneling current for angstrom changes in the gap dimensions. Given that any metal-molecule-metal junction is likely to have enough variability on this length scale, conductance changes in these junctions (and thus stochastic switching) should be completely general in this type of system. In this paper, we show that stochastic switching can be observed in two types of electroactive thiol molecules inserted into an n-alkanethiolate SAM on gold. Previously we have observed negative differential resistance (NDR, decreasing current with increasing bias) in these types of molecules when in a SAM. 11 At the applied bias in which these molecules show NDR, they show an enhanced conductance compared to an n-alkanethiolate SAM background. Here, we show that this enhanced conductance behavior blinks on and off, presumably because of conformation and/ or orientation changes of the inserted molecules with the SAM over time.}, number={11}, journal={NANO LETTERS}, author={Wassel, RA and Fuierer, RR and Kim, NJ and Gorman, CB}, year={2003}, month={Nov}, pages={1617–1620} } @inbook{carroll_fuierer_gorman_2003, title={Using probe lithography and self-assembled monolayers to investigate potential molecular electronics systems}, volume={844}, ISBN={0841237824}, booktitle={Molecules as components of electronic devises}, publisher={Washington, D.C.: American Chemical Society}, author={Carroll, R.

This method is distinguishable from other lithographic replacement processes on SAMs in that a nonpolar solution and an uncoated tip can be employed. Elevated relative humidity was important in the facility of this process, suggesting an electrochemical mechanism for replacement. The resolution of features written with this process is ca. 10−15 nm. In nonpolar solution, the apparent heights of self-assembled decanethiolate and dodecanethiolate monolayers are reversed compared to those observed in images obtained in air. When the thiol solution was exchanged after the first replacement, writing with two different thiols was demonstrated.}, number={15}, journal={LANGMUIR}, author={Gorman, CB and Carroll, RL and He, YF and Tian, F and Fuierer, R}, year={2000}, month={Jul}, pages={6312–6316} } @article{mcconnell_novak_brousseau_fuierer_tenent_feldheim_2000, title={Electronic and optical properties of chemically modified metal nanoparticles and molecularly bridged nanoparticle arrays}, volume={104}, number={38}, journal={Journal of Physical Chemistry.
