✦ Synopsis


Self

-assembled monolayers of straight-chain alkanethiolates (RS) on gold were studied by nitrogen laser desorption followed by vacuum ultraviolet (118 nm) photoionization of secondary neutrals in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The dominant feature of all photoionization mass spectra were the dimers (RSSR + ) for all thiolates studied. No monomer ions (RS + ) were observed, in contrast with previous results from time-of-flight secondary ion and direct laser desorption mass spectrometry. Results are presented from experiments on the tetradecyl (C 14 ) and hexadecyl (C 16 ) mercaptan monolayers. Mixed C 14 /C 16 monolayers generated both pure and mixed dimers, indicating a facile association between different monomer chain lengths.

## Abstract This work demonstrates that the desorption/ionization on self‐assembled monolayer surface (DIAMS) mass spectrometry, a recent matrix‐free laser desorption/ionization (LDI) method based on an organic target plate, is as statistically repeatable and reproducible as matrix assisted laser d
