The surface science of titanium dioxide

U Diebold - Surface science reports, 2003 - Elsevier
Titanium dioxide is the most investigated single-crystalline system in the surface science of
metal oxides, and the literature on rutile (110),(100),(001), and anatase surfaces is …

Structure and properties of TiO2 surfaces: a brief review

U Diebold - Applied physics A, 2003 - Springer
Titanium oxides are used in a wide variety of technological applications where surface
properties play a role. TiO 2 surfaces, especially the (110) face of rutile, have become …

Insights into photoexcited electron scavenging processes on TiO2 obtained from studies of the reaction of O2 with OH groups adsorbed at electronic defects on TiO2 …

MA Henderson, WS Epling, CHF Peden… - The Journal of …, 2003 - ACS Publications
In this study we show that molecular oxygen reacts with bridging OH (OHbr) groups formed
as a result of water dissociation at oxygen vacancy defects on the surface of rutile TiO2 …

Adsorption of gold on stoichiometric and reduced rutile surfaces

A Vijay, G Mills, H Metiu - The Journal of chemical physics, 2003 - pubs.aip.org
We present a density functional study of reduced and stoichiometric rutile TiO 2 (110)
surfaces, and of binding of gold monomers and dimers to them. On the stoichiometric TiO 2 …

Adsorption of Au atoms on stoichiometric and reduced TiO2 (1 1 0) rutile surfaces: a first principles study

Y Wang, GS Hwang - Surface science, 2003 - Elsevier
Using ab initio quantum mechanical methods (DFT-GGA/LDA, pseudopotentials) we have
investigated the adsorption properties of Au atoms on stoichiometric and reduced TiO2 (110) …

STM study on structures of two kinds of wide strands formed on TiO2 (110)

S Takakusagi, K Fukui, F Nariyuki, Y Iwasawa - Surface science, 2003 - Elsevier
Structures of two kinds of wide strands with different height formed on nonstoichiometric
TiO2− x (110) surfaces are discussed based on atom-resolved STM images. Bright strands …

Role of Bulk Thermal Defects in the Reconstruction Dynamics of the Surface

KF McCarty, NC Bartelt - Physical review letters, 2003 - APS
We use low-energy electron microscopy to show that changing the temperature of oxygen-
deficient, rutile-structure crystals causes steps on the (110) surfaces to move. This motion …

Controlling size distributions of copper islands grown on TiO2 (110)-(1× 2)

J Zhou, DA Chen - Surface Science, 2003 - Elsevier
The growth of Cu islands (0.03–3.4 ML) on a partially reconstructed TiO2 (110) surface was
investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy. These studies show that the island size …

Assignment of the surface of rutile from first principles

SD Elliott, SP Bates - Physical Review B, 2003 - APS
Abstract The (1× 2) reconstruction of rutile TiO 2 (110) is assigned as the “added row”+ T i 2
O 3 structure of Onishi and Iwasawa [Surf. Sci. 313, L783 (1994)]. First principles …

Self-Limiting Growth of Pt Nanoparticles from Adsorbed on Studied by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
