For the synthesis of lead sulfide nanoparticles (PbS) and CdS quantum dots (QDs), which have potential uses in solar cells, ammonium gas sensors, and energy-efficient lighting, DDT can be utilized as a source of sulfur. As a corrosion-resistant coating, it can be utilized to create a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on copper surfaces. Geranium (Ge) surfaces that have undergone functionalization with DDT may develop SAMs to enhance their surface properties for upcoming microelectronic applications.
The creation of hydrophobic SAMs involves this molecule. Additionally, it can be utilized in mixed SAMs to provide a hydrophobic background and serve as a spacer to spread out other functional groups or domains.
