Disorder in the tri(ethylene glycol) chains attached to thiols 2 and 3 could lead to better mixing of these thiols; however, the process of phase separation in SAMs is not yet understood well enough to make predictions with confidence.

24. Adsorbed proteins should not be densely packed as long as the NTA-terminated thiolates are randomly distributed or phase segregated into protein size microdomains (see ref 22). Another possibility that we cannot rule out is that the thiolates phase segregated into domains much larger than a protein. This possibility could lead to islands of densely packed proteins surrounded by areas free of protein.
25. The theoretical SPR response to changes in the index of refraction of the bulk liquid and to deposition of thin protein films was determined by calculating the reflection of p-polarized light from a stratified, planar, isotropic structure, as described by: Azzam, R. M. A.; Bashara, N. M. Ellipsometry and Polarized Light; North-Holland: New York, 1977 The model used consisted of three layers with finite thicknesses (gold, SAM, and protein) between two semiinfinite media (glass and solution). The indices of refraction for the gold (0.17 + 4.931), glass (1.511), and water (1329) layers were taken from ref 5. We used an index of refraction of 1.45 for both the SAM and protein layers (see ref 16).
26. Some possible explanations for the heterogeneity in the dissociation of adsorbed scTCR by imidazole include the following: (i) some fraction of adsorbed protein may have bound to multiple Ni(II) ions and been less sensitive to treatment with imidazole, (ii) there may have been a strongly adsorbing impurity in the scTCR preparation, or (iii) some denaturation of protein may have occurred on the surface
