Chemical measurements of polyethylene glycol shells on gold nanoparticles in the presence of aggregation.

abstract：:Simulations of water at hydrophilic self-assembled monolayer (SAM) surfaces are especially relevant for biological interfaces. Well-defined, atomically smooth surfaces that can be continuously varied are possible with SAMs. These characteristics enable more accurate measurements than many other surfaces with the added...
