Surface Stabilization Mechanisms in Metal
Surface Stabilization Mechanisms in Metal Oxides Andrés E. Becerra Toledo Metal oxide surfaces play a central role in modern applications, ranging from heterogeneous catalysis to electronic devices, yet little is known about the processes determining their structural stabilization. Several such stabilization mechanisms are explored via a combination of theoretical and experimental methods. The ...
متن کاملc(4 × 2) and related structural units on the SrTiO3(001) surface: scanning tunneling microscopy, density functional theory, and atomic structure.
Density functional theory is used to simulate high-bias, constant-current scanning tunneling micrographs for direct comparison with experimental images. Coupled to previous spectroscopic data, these simulations are used to determine the atomic structure of Ti-rich nanostructures on strontium titanate (001) surfaces. These nanostructures have three consecutive TiO(x) surface layers and exploit t...
متن کاملIntrinsic Superhydrophilicity of Titania-Terminated Surfaces
The wettability of solid surfaces is of fundamental scientific interest and related to many diverse chemical and physical phenomena at the heart of practical technologies. In particular, the hydrophilicity of the photocatalytically active metal-oxide TiO2 has attracted considerable attention for many applications. However, the intrinsic hydrophilicity of Ti-oxide surfaces is not fully understoo...
متن کاملNucleation and growth of primary nanostructures in SrTiO3 homoepitaxy
SrTiO3 nanoislands on SrTiO3 (001) in a diffusion-limited growth regime were studied using in situ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM images revealed two characteristic features of nucleation stages. First, the minimum lateral size of the one-unit-cell (uc)-high SrTiO3 islands was 4 × 4 uc (2). Second, one-dimensional SrTiO3 islands of a 4 uc width grew along the crystal symmetry dire...
متن کاملCorrosion-Resistant PEFC Cathode Catalysts Based on Sub-Stoichiometric Titanium Oxide Supports
Corrosion of carbonaceous catalyst support materials such as carbon black has been known for conventional Pt/C catalysts, which is recognized as one of the cause of catalyst degradation [1]. To improve the durability of cathode catalyst, especially at high potentials during startstop periods, a more oxidation-resistant catalyst support at high potentials (>1.0 V) is desired for automotive and r...
