The Effect of Deposition Time on the Surface Coverage of Sublimation Deposited Solid-Phase Glycine and Proline Molecules Measured by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
The effect of deposition time on the surface coverage of sublimation deposited solid-phase glycine and proline molecules onto a Ge(100) surface was studied at room temperature using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM images obtained at various coverages of glycine and proline adsorbed on t...

description | The effect of deposition time on the surface coverage of sublimation deposited solid-phase glycine and proline molecules onto a Ge(100) surface was studied at room temperature using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM images obtained at various coverages of glycine and proline adsorbed on the Ge(100) surface showed that (i) the adsorption rate for both molecules gradually decreased with increasing deposition time, obeying the Langmuir adsorption model, and (ii) the coverage of glycine on the Ge(100) surface is higher than that of proline under the same deposition conditions, which may be due to the differences in their molecular weight or molecular sticking probability. |
