Probing Conformers and Adsorption Footprints at the Single-Molecule Level in a Highly Organized Amino Acid Assembly of (S)-Proline on Cu(110).

Establishing the nanoscale details of organized amino acid assemblies at surfaces is a major challenge in the field of organic-inorganic interfaces. Here, we show that the dense (4 x 2) overlayer of the amino acid, (S)-proline on a Cu(110) surface can be explored at the single-molecule level by scan...
