Thermal desorption behavior and binding properties of DNA bases and nucleosides on gold by Demers, Linette M., Mirkin, Chad A., Östblom, Mattias, Zhang, Hua, Jang, Nak-Han, Liedberg, Bo

“…The differences can be rationalized by molecular structures of the bases and their binding modes to gold surfaces deduced from IR data. Similar trends in desorption energies, shifted to lower desorption energy by more than 10 kJ/mol, are observed for deoxynucleoside layers on gold thin films.…”
