We discuss the electronic structure modifications induced on the dihydride-terminated Si(001) surface upon cysteine adsorption by means of ab initio calculations: several stable functionalization schemes are presented, providing different routes for biological recognition, surface nanostructuring, and biomolecular electronics applications. The resulting hybrid systems are discussed and compared in terms of stability, structural, and electronic properties. Based on our results, we propose STM and photoemission experiments to determine unambiguously the adsorption mechanism involved and the attached functional group.
