We find from our calculations that the binding energies for the NO2 molecules, calculated in this paper, are too low, most likely due to the lacking optimization of the site at which the gas molecule binds to the BPDT.

We reply to the Comment by Leifer et al. on our publication [Prasongkit et al., RSC Adv., 2016, 64, 59299]. We maintain that, as biphenyl is non-reactive, low binding energies are expected when gases are adsorbed on biphenyl dithiol.

Biphenyl dithiol (BPDT) was examined for the detection of NO, NO2, NH3 and CO gas molecules using the first-principle methods. The quantum interference effects were observed in the transmission, revealing the application of BPDT as a gas sensor.

The relativistic quantum interference effects in the spacetime of slowly rotating object in braneworld as the Sagnac effect and phase shift effect of interfering particle in neutron interferometer are derived in unified way. It is found that in the case of the Sagnac effect, the influence of brane parameter is becoming important due to the fact that the angular velocity of the locally non-rotating observer is increased by the brane tension. In the case of neutron interferometry, it is found that an additional term in the phase shift of interfering particle emerges due to the presence of the brane parameter Q*. From the obtained expressions of phase shift in Mach–Zehnder interferometer upper limit for brane parameter has been estimated. From the results of the recent experiments we have obtained upper limit for the tidal charge as Q* ≲ 107 cm 2. Finally, as an example, we apply the obtained results to the calculation of the (ultra-cold neutrons) energy level modification in the gravitational field of slowly rotating gravitating object in the braneworld.
