Water plays a very important role in promoting the biological self-assembly process, while
our understanding is limited about how water affects and reshapes the assembly structure …

Amino acids provide novel and superior performance for two-dimensional materials and bio-
based devices. The interaction and adsorption of amino acid molecules on substrates have …

The solvation of amphiphile molecules plays a crucial role in a broad range of physical,
chemical, and biological processes. Although we have gained some insights into those …

In this study, through the choice of the well-known G− K biological coordination system,
bioligand− alkali metal coordination has for the first time been brought onto an inert Au (111) …

The adsorption of histidine (His), and its peptide glycyl-glycyl-histidine (Gly-Gly-His), on Au
(111) and Au (110) has been studied by soft X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and …

Noncovalent recognition between peptides and inorganic materials is an established
phenomenon. Key to exploiting these interactions in a wide range of materials self-assembly …

We investigated the adsorption of hydronium ions on Ag (111) in conditions that simulate the
structure of the double layer using the ab initio quantum mechanical Moller− Plesset second …

We investigate the structure of submonolayer film of 4, 4′-biphenyl dicarboxylic acid (BDA)
molecules on Au (111)-22×√ 3 reconstructed surface with the use of scanning tunneling …

Proteins able to recognize inorganic surfaces are of paramount importance for living
organisms. Mimicking nature, surface-recognizing proteins and peptides have also been …
