Abstract
Molecular orientations of L-serine on Cu(001) as a function of exposure were studied using RAIRS. In the results, the intensity variations of δ(C∗H) and ν(C∗H) bands (C∗ denotes a chiral carbon) caused with increasing the coverage in addition to some common bands with adsorbed alanine on Cu(001). Furthermore, a C-O stretching band in hydroxy group caused blue shift from 1112 to 1141 cm-1. The bands correspond to weak hydrogen bonding and tight one, respectively. These characteristic spectra are very reasonable to proposed models in the previous study. [DOI: 10.1380/ejssnt.2013.85]
