	abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">Four different carboranethiol derivatives were used to modify the surfaces of gold nanoparticles and flat gold films. The novel materials engendered from these modifications are extraordinarily stable species with surfaces that support self-assembled monolayers of 1-(HS)-1,2-C<sub>2</sub>B<sub>10</sub>H<sub>11</sub>, 1,2-(HS)<sub>2</sub>-1,2-C<sub>2</sub>B<sub>10</sub>H<sub>10</sub>, 1,12-(HS)<sub>2</sub>-1,12-C<sub>2</sub>B<sub>10</sub>H<sub>10</sub>, and 9,12-(HS)<sub>2</sub>-1,2-C<sub>2</sub>B<sub>10</sub>H<sub>10</sub>, respectively. Surprisingly, characterization of these materials revealed that a number of molecules of the carboranethiol derivatives are incorporated inside the nanoparticles. This structural feature was studied using a number of techniques, including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV },
