摘要：

The nature of the thiolate/Au(111) interface is a long-standing puzzle. It has been suggested that thiolates drive surface reconstruction, however, a consensus regarding the adsorption configuration is missing. Herein, the density-functional theory is used to evaluate surface core-level shifts (SCLSs) for methyl thiolates on Au(111) assuming a representative set of different surface reconstructions. The SCLSs are found to provide sensitive fingerprints of the anchoring configuration, and it is only thiolate adsorption in the form of MeS-Au-SMe complexes that can be reconciled with experimental data.
