On the Colloidal Stability of Apolar Nanoparticles: The Role of Ligand Length (vol 34, pg 12982, 2018)

Abstract

While preparing another manuscript, we found an error in the code used to calculate the average dihedral angle of the ligands given in Figures 1e, 2b, and 3e in the main manuscript and Figure 7b in the Supporting Information. Some solvent molecules were included in the analysis resulting in average dihedral angles that were too small. Additionally, the data set used to calculate the average dihedral angles of SC18 ligands coating 8.3 nm Au NPs was from a not fully equilibrated simulation.
