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…
How water binds to microcline feldspar (001)
Giada Franceschi, Andrea Conti, Luca Lezuo +4
Microcline feldspar (KAlSiO) is a common mineral with important roles for Earth's ecological balance. It participates in the carbon, potassium, and water cycles, contributi…
Interaction of surface cations of cleaved mica with water in vapor and liquid forms
Giada Franceschi, Sebastian Brandstetter, Jan Balajka +5
Natural minerals contain ions that become hydrated when they come into contact with water in vapor and liquid forms. Muscovite mica -- a common phyllosilicate with perfect cleavage…
Resolving the intrinsic short-range ordering of K ions on cleaved muscovite mica
Giada Franceschi, Pavel Kocán, Andrea Conti +8
Muscovite mica, KAl(SiAl)O(OH), is a common layered phyllosilicate with perfect cleavage planes. The atomically flat surfaces obtained through cleaving lend them…
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…
