Evolution of the surface atomic structure of multielement oxide films: curse or blessing?
Giada Franceschi, Renè Heller, Michael Schmid +2
Atomically resolved scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are used to gain atomic-scale insights into the heteroepitaxy of lanthanum-stront…
Reconstruction changes drive surface diffusion and determine the flatness of oxide surfaces
Giada Franceschi, Michael Schmid, Ulrike Diebold +1
Surface diffusion on metal oxides is key in many areas of materials technology, yet it has been scarcely explored at the atomic scale. This work provides phenomenological insights…
The effect of different InO(111) surface terminations on CO adsorption
Sabrina M. Gericke, Minttu M. Kauppinen, Margareta Wagner +15
InO-based catalysts have shown high activity and selectivity for CO hydrogenation to methanol, however the origin of the high performance of InO is still unclea…
Water Structures Reveal Local Hydrophobicity on the In2O3(111) Surface
Hao Chen, Matthias A. Blatnik, Christian L. Ritterhoff +9
Clean oxide surfaces are generally hydrophilic. Water molecules anchor at undercoordinated surface metal atoms that act as Lewis-acid sites, and they are stabilized by H bonds to u…
Real-space investigation of polarons in hematite Fe2O3
Jesus Redondo, Michele Reticcioli, Vit Gabriel +17
In polarizable materials, electronic charge carriers interact with the surrounding ions, leading to quasiparticle behaviour. The resulting polarons play a central role in many mate…
Hematite in top and side view: resolving long-standing controversies about its surface structure
Jesús Redondo, Jan Michalička, Giada Franceschi +13
Hematite is the most-investigated iron oxide model system in photo and electrocatalytic research. The rich chemistry of Fe and O allows for many bulk and surf…
