Journal ArticleDOI
XPS study of nitrogen dioxide adsorption on metal oxide particle surfaces under different environmental conditions
TL;DR: N1s core electron binding energies (CEBEs) were calculated using DFT for a number of nitrogen-containing species in the gas phase and adsorbed on an Al(8)O(12) cluster and a range of CEBEs is calculated for various nitrogen species in different adsorption modes and oxidation states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photoreaction of ethanol on TiO2(110) single-crystal surface
TL;DR: In this article, the adsorption, thermal, and UV reactions of ethanol over a TiO2(110) single-crystal surface have been studied in the presence and the absence of molecular oxygen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sulfur Dioxide Adsorption on TiO2 Nanoparticles: Influence of Particle Size, Coadsorbates, Sample Pretreatment, and Light on Surface Speciation and Surface Coverage
TL;DR: In this paper, the surface speciation and surface coverage of sulfur-containing products on ca. 4 nm TiO2 anatase particles were investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactions on Atmospheric Dust Particles: Surface Photochemistry and Size-Dependent Nanoscale Redox Chemistry
TL;DR: In this article, several new mechanisms and reaction pathways were identified in laboratory studies on components of mineral dust and on nanodust, a potentially new source of metal-containing dust from engineered nanomaterials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface Photochemistry of Adsorbed Nitrate: The Role of Adsorbed Water in the Formation of Reduced Nitrogen Species on α-Fe2O3 Particle Surfaces
