N-Heterocyclic carbene-based gold etchants
N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are an emerging alternative to thiols for the formation of stable self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold. We examined several different species that have been used to produce NHC-based monolayers on gold, namely 1,3-diisopropyl-5-nitrobenzimidazolium iodide, 1,3-diis...
