Zusammenfassung

The project deals with the preparation, the physical and chemical properties and possible applications of freely suspended unimolecular nanosheets. These nanosheets are novel ultrathin membranes with the thickness of a single molecule (1-2 nm). They are based on cross-linked self-assembled monolayers that can be released from their substrate and are stable as a free-standing nanomaterial. The sheet's structure and chemical composition, as well as mechanical properties (tensile strength, resonance frequencies), electrical conductivity and chemical properties such as surface functionaliz...
