Abstract
⺠The Si(1 1 1) surface fuctionalized with a H-bond SAM based on propyl-urea molecules is investigated. ⺠Optimal coverage corresponds to 1/2 ML for maximizing H-bond formation. ⺠The monomer gives raise to a different surface periodicity. ⺠Occurrence of the most stable structure is experimentally revealed by a decrease of the Si(1 1 1) ionization potential and the change in periodicity from the STM surface image.
