Article Synopsis
  • Small nanoparticles of gold, silver, and copper (≈2 nm) were synthesized and stabilized with l- and d-cysteine, exhibiting chiroptical activity in the range of 250-400 nm, which was not present in the bare nanoparticles or ligands alone.
  • Silver-cysteine (Ag-Cys) nanoparticles showed the strongest anisotropy factor, while gold-cysteine (Au-Cys) exhibited optical properties slightly shifted toward the visible spectrum.
  • Copper-cysteine (Cu-Cys) nanoparticles displayed multiple circular dichroism (CD) bands that were weaker in intensity compared to those of gold and silver, with the differences in their spectral behavior attributed to the interactions at the metal-ligand interface, as
