The surface-plasmon-mediated, extraordinary transmission of metallic arrays of subwavelength apertures has been used as the light source for absorption studies of self-assembled monolayers on metal. Enhanced infrared absorption spectra of a sequence of alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers on copper were recorded for carbon chain lengths varying from 8 to 18 atoms. Transition positions and intensities are presented over a large range of the infrared region. The connection between the vibrational modes of the CH2 wagging progression and the infinite methylene chain is explored using a traditional coupled oscillator approach and a new cluster perspective.© 2004 American Institute of Physics.
