| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we aimed to quantitatively evaluate interface affinity between self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), which is an important example of soft material interfaces, and solvent. The underlying mechanism governing interface affinity was investigated from the microscopic viewpoint, which means that influence of the molecular scale structure of SAM and chemical characters of organic materials on interface affinity were clarified. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to reproduce the wetting behavior of solvent droplet with various SAM terminals and solvents. The MD simulation results were compared with available experimental data, and the deviation was discussed with the theoretical model for wetting on SAMs.
