AG_Schneider_PostsCoverage induced switching of chirality in surface self-assemblies of prochiral molecules
When molecules adsorb on surfaces many interesting phenomena arise. One is the occurrence of chirality (handedness) from molecules that a achiral in the gas phase. These so called “prochiral” molecule can adsorb in two mirror symmetric ways on a surface and become chiral, since the two configurations cannot be superimposed by translation or rotation.
