title: Vibrational spectroscopy of chemisorbed fatty acids with inelastic electron tunneling.
abstract: We have measured and assigned the inelastic tunneling spectra of hexanoic acid chemisorbed onto an oxidized aluminum file. We present evidence for gauche-trans as well as-trans conformers in the monolayer and evidence in support of a recent theory of tunneling intensities.
