In the present review we survey the main advances made in recent years on the
understanding of chemical chirality at solid surfaces. Chirality is an important topic, made …

Metal phthalocyanine molecules with their inherent versatility call for an exploration of their
fundamental properties when anchored on conducting substrates for designing new …

Structural properties of 2-butanol aqueous solutions at different concentrations have been
studied using small-and wide-angle X-ray scattering and molecular dynamics simulations …

Small organic molecules have been shown to produce sufficient power densities allowing
them to be environmentally friendly renewable fuel sources and an important part of fuel cell …

As known, the electron density of covalently bound halogen atoms is anisotropically
distributed, making them potentially able to establish many weak interactions, acting at the …

Identifying and characterizing the atomic-scale interaction of methanol with oxidized Cu
surfaces is of fundamental relevance to industrial reactions, such as methanol steam …

We report molecular simulations of the interaction between a graphene sheet and different
liquids such as water, ethanol, and ethylene glycol. We describe the structural arrangements …

Gold-based catalysts have received tremendous attention as supports and nanoparticles for
heterogeneous catalysis, in part due to the ability of nanoscale Au to catalyze reactions at …

Enantioselective interactions underpin many important phenomena from biological
mechanisms to chemical catalysis. In this regard, there is great interest in understanding …

The autocatalytic decomposition of tartaric acid on Cu (111) exhibits unique kinetics, which
are linked to a hexagonal surface structure adopted at high coverage. The chirality imposed …
