Nanostructure Determines the Wettability of Gold Surfaces by Ionic Liquid Ultrathin Films

Ionic liquids are employed in energy storage/harvesting devices, in catalysis and biomedical technologies, due to their tunable bulk and interfacial properties. In particular, the wettability and the structuring of the ionic liquids at the interface are of paramount importance for all those applicat...
