Abstract

SURFACE catalysis and epitaxis are controlled by crystallographic factors. Molecules adsorbed on solid phase boundaries exhibit different physical chemical properties from the same molecules when present in a solution. In solid state conditions a lowering in activation energies is frequently observed and amino-acids may polymerize to peptides and proteins once they are attached on a solid surface. The mineral surface simply acts as a selective lattice.
