Helical Gold Nanorods as Chiral Recognition Nanostructures: A Relativistic Density Functional Theory Study.

We establish helical gold nanorods as the first examples of chiral recognition nanostructures by examining the simple chiral molecule CClHDT adsorbed on the helical Au nanorod. We calculate the vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of the R and S enantiomers of CClHDT adsorbed on the R (or S)...
