“…The D-cysteine would bind~0.3 kcal/mol stronger than L-cysteine on an S-type Au (17,11,9) surface ( Figure 6B), 100 and such asymmetric adsorption has been confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. 96 Gellman et al 101 used temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) to measure the R-3-methylcyclohexanone desorption on different chiral Cu surfaces, such as (643), (653), (651), (13,9,1), (17,5,1), (821), and (531). The |ΔΔE des | was found to range from~0.63 to 1.08 kcal/mol.…”
