Amine-Boranes as Organic Ligands for Surface Functionalization

Summary

Researchers at Purdue University have developed a method for surface functionalization of semiconductors, conductors, and dielectric materials, using amine-boranes bearing reactive functional groups as organic ligands via self-assembly. With the self-assembly of such ligands, these surfaces may provide numerous applications. In addition to use in electronics, amine-boranes are reducing agents, making them potentially useful for adhesives, protective coatings, and on-demand hydrogen sources. The developed technology includes a method to modify the surface characteristics of dielectric materials, improving the mobility of charge carriers.
