Key Points

The study aims to understand the manufacturing processes of functional materials with nanostructured surfaces, focusing on TiO2 and TMDCs.
Examined the coating of TiO2 with stabilizing molecules like oleic acid.
Analyzed nucleation behavior of SnS2 on functionalized SAMs using solution based atomic layer deposition.
Used x-ray reflectometry to measure structural properties of thin films.
Achieved optimal oleic acid coating with a thickness under 2 Å and an angle cut below 0.25°.
Formulated a mechanism showing gradual exchange of oleic acid by porphyrin molecules on the rutile surface.
Observed nucleation of SnS2 as island growth, influenced by thiol group density and precursor reactivity.

Investigates functionalization processes in nanostructured materials, highlighting their importance.
