Hydrogen Spillover. Facts and Fiction

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is the most investigated crystalline oxide in the surface science of metal oxides. Its physical and chemical properties are dominantly determined by its surface condition. Ti3+ surface defect (TSD) is one of the most important surface defects in TiO2. According to publications by other groups and the studies carried out in our laboratory, the formation mechanism of TSD is proposed. The generation, properties, and photocatalytic application of TSD are overviewed; the recent exploration of TSD is summarized, analyzed, and evaluated as well in this paper.

Ti 3+ in the surface of titanium dioxide: generation, properties and photocatalytic application

Nanoscale structural information underlies research aimed at fabricating catalysts in a more controlled way. Surface science methods can provide that information, but the complexity of heterogeneous systems in general hinders the application of these methods to their full potential. In the last decades, a solution to this problem has been found in the use of model systems, ranging from well-defined single crystals of the supported phase to films or particles of that phase on flat or spherical model supports. In this paper, we review the literature on the latter model systems, that is, particles on a model support. Attention is payed to both preparation and use of such model systems.
