(a,b) Contact angle of ultrapure water droplet on (a) 4- and (b) 5-modified Au(111) surface (denoted as 4/Au(111) and 5/Au(111), respectively). (c) Schematics of the click chemistry reaction at a surface. (d) Cyclic voltammograms of the three corresponding electrodes (1–3) as indicated in c in HMIm-PF6 at a scan rate of 50 mV s−1.
