説明

A novel two-layer sample composed of a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) film and self-assembled monolayer (SAM) was prepared on an inorganic surface to mimic the processes in which DNA is damaged by soft X-ray irradiation.A mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) SAM was formed on a sapphire surface, then oligonucleotide (OGN) molecules were adsorbed on the MPTS-SAM. The thicknesses and chemical states of the layers were determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and near-edge X-ray fine structure (NEXAFS) around the phosphorus (P) and sulfur (S) K-edges. To induce the damage to the OGN molecules, the sample was irradiated with synchrotron soft X-rays. The chemical state of the OGN molecules before and after irradiation was examined by NEXAFS around the nitrogen (N) K-edge region.The thickness of the MPTS-OGN layer was approximately 7.7 nm. The S atom of the OGN molecules was located at the bottom of the OGN layer. The peak shape of the N K-edge NEXAFS spectra of the MPTS-OGN layers clearly changed following irradiation.The MPTS-OGN layer formed on the sapphire surface. The chemical states and the structure of the interface were elucidated using synchrotron soft X-rays. The OGN molecules adsorbed on the MPTS films decomposed upon exposure to soft X-ray irradiation.
