Different types of interactions between APTES molecules and silicon dioxide substrates: (a) a covalently attached APTES molecule with its amine group extending away from the interface, (b) a covalently attached APTES molecule with its amine group interacting with a surface silanol group, and (c)–(e) weakly bounded APTES molecules.
