title: "Click" polymerization on a self-assembled monolayer: a convenient approach to functionalize various surfaces with polytriazoles.
abstract: "Click" polymerization reaction has been performed on the functional self-assembled monolayer to incorporate polytriazoles. Ellipsometric and atomic force microscopic studies indicated a high degree of polymerization and fairly dense surface coverage. Band gap calculation revealed the possibility of its use as a semiconducting material.
