Binding between carbon and the Au(111) surface and what makes it different from the S-Au(111) bond

In contrast with the case of thiols, molecular level information regarding the binding of carbon to metals is very scarce. Motivated by the growing interest in the grafting of conducting surfaces and seeking a rationale to explain the differences in electron transfer rates measured in recent experim...
