Water is perhaps the most important and most pervasive chemical on our planet. The
influence of water permeates virtually all areas of biochemical, chemical and physical …

The vanadium oxides can exist in a range of single and mixed valencies with a large variety
of structures. The large diversity of physical and chemical properties that they can thus …

Chemical state X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis of first row transition metals and
their oxides and hydroxides is challenging due to the complexity of the 2p spectra resulting …

The electronic structure of surface defects on NiO (100) and their interaction with O 2 and H
2 O have been studied on single crystals cleaved in ultrahigh vacuum by using ultraviolet …

Metal ion active sites play key roles in biological, homogeneous, and heterogeneous
catalysis. Often these sites exhibit uniquespectral features compared to small molecule …

The author reviews the present understanding of the electronic, geometric and
chemisorption properties of metal oxide surfaces. It is restricted to experimental and …

We have studied model catalysts comprised of vanadium or vanadia deposited onto both
stoichiometric and reduced single-crystal TiO2 (110) surfaces by using XPS, UPS, Auger …

Water adsorption and dissociation was studied over stoichiometric and defective SnO2 (110)
surfaces using thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS) and ultraviolet photoelectron …

Ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy has been used to study the electronic structure of
both nearly stoichiometric, well-ordered α-Fe 2 O 3 surfaces and surfaces containing point …

In this work, ambient pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS) is used to study
the initial stages of water adsorption on vanadium oxide surfaces. V 2p, O 1s, C 1s, and …
