The biological sensing interface on the active area of a piezo transducer is responsible for the sensitivity, specificity, reusability, and reproducibility of these devices. Among the approaches used to functionalize piezo transducers, mixed self-assembled monolayers (MSAMs) are one of the most successful, given that they allow the obtaining of semi-crystalline molecular arrays and the arrangement of a bioreceptor on the surface. But, to deploy MSAMs on a substrate effectively, one must optimize and characterize the structural ratio between them and the bioreceptor. In this paper, we developed a molecular model of the interaction between Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) and MSAMs-functionalized gold substrates. First, we evaluated the conditions for the functionalization of the substrates and found that a 50:1 16-mercaptohexadecaonic acid (MHDA) to 11 mercapto-1-undecanol (MUA) ratio produced the best features on the surface. We also evaluated the specific conditions to immobilize BSA on MSAMs (using the afore-established ratio) via Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), and then on a 10[Formula: see text]MHz quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), and with the data obtained we concluded that a structural ratio of 0.005 (MSAM/BSA) is obtained when 1[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M MHDA and 200[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]g/mL BSA were used, provided the most suitable conditions for the functionalization of a piezo transducer.

We present a new approach to study charge transport within 2D layers of organic semi-conductors (OSCs) using atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based lithography applied to self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), fabricated from appropriate organothiols. The extent of lateral charge transport was investigated by insulating pre-defined patches within OSC-based SAMs with regions of insulating SAM made from large band gap alkanethiolates. The new method is demonstrated using a phenyl-linked anthracenethiolate (PAT), 4-(anthracene-2-ylethynyl)benzyl thiolate. I–V characteristics of differently shaped PAT-islands were measured using the AFM tip as a top electrode. We were able to determine a relationship between island size and electrical conductivity, and from this dependence, we could obtain information on the lateral charge transport and charge carrier mobility within the thin OSC layers. Our study demonstrates that AFM nanografting of appropriately functionalized OSC molecules provides a suitable method to determine intrinsic mobilities of charge carriers in OSC thin films. In particular, this method is rather insensitive with regard to influence of grain boundaries and other defects, which hamper the application of conventional methods for the determination of mobilities in macroscopic samples.
