Atomic-beam scattering experiments using n-alkanethiol and ω-functionalized alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold are employed to explore the dynamics of gas-surface energy exchange in collisions with model organic surfaces. The studies are performed by directing a nearly monoenergetic beam of 80 kJ/mol Ar atoms onto a particular SAM at an incident angle of 30° with respect to the surface normal and recording the time-of-flight distributions for the atoms as they scatter from the surface at a final angle of 30°. Among the monolayers studied, long-chain CH3-terminated SAMs are found to be the most effective at dissipating the translational energy of impinging atoms. For alkanethiols with greater than seven total carbon atoms (HS(CH2)n>6CH3), we find that, for specular scattering conditions, over 80% of the incident energy is transferred to the surface and that over 60% of the impinging atoms approach thermal equilibrium with the surface before scattering back into the gas phase. In contrast ...
