The formation of mixed monolayers of hydridospherosilsesquioxane clusters (H{sub 8}Si{sub i}O{sub 12}) and alkylsilanes (H{sub 2n+1}C{sub n}SiH{sub 3}) on Au has been investigated using X-ray photoelectron and reflection-absorption infrared spectroscopies and scanning tunneling microscopy. All of the techniques indicate the displacement of the majority of the siloxane clusters from the surface in favor of the alkylsilane.
