Thickness measurements of TMMH on gold substrates.

AFM protocol	TMMHa thickness (nm)	Example
Time-lapse AFM study, upright adsorbates on gold	1.0 ± 0.2	Figure 2
Nanoshaving of mature SAM of TMMH	1.0 ± 0.2	Figure 4
Nanografted ODT within TMMH matrix SAM	1.2 ± 0.2	Figure 5
Nanografted MUA within TMMH matrix SAM	1.0 ± 0.2	Figure 6
Nanografted TMMH within dodecanethiol SAM	0.7 ± 0.3	Figure 7

^aThe error is estimated to be at least 0.2 nm from the thickness of a gold step.
