The distinctive interactions that take place at the metal–ligand interface for each metal are primarily accountable for establishing the properties of this system. In its protonated state, glutathione anchors only by its thiol group to the surface of gold and copper nanoparticles, whilst for silver nanoparticles an additional binding site through the nitrogen atom of the amide group was indicated by XPS data, albeit with a relatively low proportion. This may contribute to the higher anisotropy factor observed in silver–glutathione nanoparticles. Such slight variations in adsorption configuration generate different chiroptical activity, which has been analyzed per energy region using time-dependent DFT calculations, revealing that metal-to-ligand transitions dominate most of the spectra while ligand-to-ligand are also present in the higher energy regime. Moreover, FTIR and CD data together suggest that those dissimilarities also propitiate particular peptide self-assemblies through intermolecular GSH interactions for each metal, which result in supramolecular structures with properties of beta-sheet arrays.

The combination of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and rheological analysis showed that HEC strongly interacts with perovskite precursors already in solution, retards DMSO evaporation and then modifies the crystallisation dynamics process, resulting in a film characterised by highly uniform grain structure and improved film stability, with a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 15.89%. In contrast, CAT with partially substituted –OH groups showed weaker interactions resulting in non-uniform crystal growth and poor film morphology.
