There are many reasons to report on silica interacting with biomolecules. The most obvious
one is that on the Earth's crust, oxygen and silicon are the most abundant atomic species …

Surface science techniques have now reached a stage of maturity that has enabled their
successful deployment in the study of complex adsorption systems. A particular example of …

Biological surface science (BioSS), as defined here is the broad interdisciplinary area where
properties and processes at interfaces between synthetic materials and biological …

Recent years have seen a considerable upsurge in publications concerning the surface
structure and chemistry of materials with biological or biomedical applications. Within the …

Amino acids and peptides are often used as “model” segments of proteins for studying their
behavior in various types of environments, and/or elaborating functional surfaces. Indeed …

Glycine was adsorbed on the surface of a well-defined silica from aqueous solutions of
variable concentrations and pHs. The adsorbed molecules were characterized using middle …

The controlled synthesis of ZnO at the micro-and nanoscale has been the focus of significant
research due to its importance in electrical and optoelectronic applications, and the potential …

The chemisorption of glycine (NH2CH2COOH) and its fully deuterated analogue d5-glycine,
vacuum deposited on a clean Cu {110} surface, have been investigated using reflection …

The engineering of complex architectures from functional molecules on surfaces provides
new pathways to control matter at the nanoscale. In this article, we present a combined study …
