Assembly of nanosize metallic particles and molecular wires on electrode surfaces.
This article highlights recent developments in the assembly of nanosize materials on electrode surfaces. A brief historical background of the field is given, followed by a selection of topics of particular current interest. We focus especially on the assembly of nanosize metallic particles and molecular wires on gold and silicon electrode surfaces. The fabrication, properties, and characteristics of functional nanostructured biointerfaces on electrode surfaces are also described.
