1-十二烷硫醇(DDT)是可形成自组装单层膜(SAM)的烷基硫醇，可用作具有平衡理化性质的有机硫醇源； DDT可用作合成CdS量子点(QD)和硫化铅纳米颗粒(PbS)的硫醇来源，可能应用于节能照明、太阳能电池和铵气传感剂。这种成分可用于在铜表面形成自组装单层膜(SAM)，充当耐腐蚀涂层。DDT官能化可能会在锗(Ge)上形成SAM，从而改善未来微电子学应用的表面特性。 该分子可用于生产疏水性SAM。此外，它还可用于混合SAM，以提供疏水性背景，并充当拉大与其他官能团或结构域距离的间隔臂。 1-Dodecanethiol (DDT) is an alkyl thiol that forms a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) and can be used as an organic source of sulfur with balanced physio-chemical properties. DDT can be used as a source of sulfur for the synthesis CdS quantum dots (QDs) and lead sulfide nanoparticles (PbS) which find potential applications in energy efficient lighting, solar cells and as ammonium gas sensing agents.[ It may be used to form a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on copper surface as a corrosion resistant coating. Functionalization with DDT may form SAMs on geranium (Ge) to improve the surface characteristics for futuristic applications in microelectronics. This molecule is used for the production of hydrophobic SAMs. It can also be used in mixed SAMs to give a hydrophobic background and act as a spacer to move other functional groups or domains farther apart.
