Title: Water adsorption on vanadium oxide thin films in ambient relative humidity

Abstract

Here 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 valence band XPS spectra were collected as a function of relative humidity in a series of isotherm and isobar experiments. Experiments were carried out on two VO₂ thin films on TiO₂ (100) substrates, prepared with different surface cleaning procedures. Hydroxyl and molecular water surface species were identified, with up to 0.5 ML hydroxide present at the minimum relative humidity, and a consistent molecular water adsorption onset occurring around 0.01% relative humidity. The work function was found to increase with increasing relative humidity, suggesting that surface water and hydroxyl species are oriented with the hydrogen atoms directed away from the surface. Changes in the valence band were also observed as a function of relative humidity. The results were similar to those observed in APXPS experiments on other transition metal oxide surfaces, suggesting that H₂O-OH and H₂O-H₂O surface complex formation plays an important role in the oxide wetting process and water dissociation. Compared to polycrystalline vanadium metal, these vanadium oxide films generate less hydroxide and appear to be more favorable formore » molecular water adsorption.« less

Water Adsorption and Dissociation on Polycrystalline Copper Oxides: Effects of Environmental Contamination and Experimental Protocol

Journal Article Trotochaud, Lena ; Head, Ashley R. ; Pletincx, Sven ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry. B, Condensed Matter, Materials, Surfaces, Interfaces and Biophysical Chemistry

We use ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS) to study chemical changes, including hydroxylation and water adsorption, at copper oxide surfaces from ultrahigh vacuum to ambient relative humidities of ~5%. Polycrystalline CuO and Cu₂O surfaces were prepared by selective oxidation of metallic copper foils. For both oxides, hydroxylation occurs readily, even at high-vacuum conditions. Hydroxylation on both oxides plateaus near ~0.01% relative humidity (RH) at a coverage of ~1 monolayer. In contrast to previous studies, neither oxide shows significant accumulation of molecular water; rather, both surfaces show a high affinity for adventitious carbon contaminants.

Structure, Magnetism, and the Interaction of Water with Ti-Doped Fe3O4 Surfaces

Journal Article Stoerzinger, Kelsey A. ; Pearce, Carolyn I. ; Droubay, Timothy C. ; ... - Langmuir

The functionality of magnetite, Fe3O4, for catalysis and spintronics applications is dependent on the molar ratio of Fe2+ and Fe3+ and their distribution at the surface. In turn, this depends on a poorly understood interplay between crystallographic orientation, dopants, and the reactive adsorption of atmospheric species such as water. Here, (100), (110), and (111) oriented films of titano-magnetite, Fe(3-x)TixO4, were grown by pulsed laser deposition and their composition, 2 valence distribution, magnetism, and interaction with water were studied by ambient pressure Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). Although the bulk compositions match the targeted stoichiometry, themore »« less

Formation of Hydroxyl and Water Layers on MgO Films Studied with Ambient Pressure XPS

Journal Article Newberg, J T ; Starr, D ; Yamamoto, S ; ... - Surface Science

To understand the interaction of water with MgO(100), a detailed quantitative assessment of the interfacial chemistry is necessary. We have used ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to measure molecular (H{sub 2}O) and dissociative (OH) water adsorption on a 4 monolayer (ML) thick MgO(100)/Ag(100) film under ambient conditions. Since the entire 4 ML metal oxide (Ox) film is probed by XPS, the reaction of the MgO film with water can be quantitatively studied. Using a multilayer model (Model 1) that measures changes in Ox thickness from O 1s (film) and Ag 3d (substrate) spectra, it is shown that the oxidemore »« less

Electron transfer reactions on Cs/MoS{sub 2}(0002) with chlorine, oxygen, and water: High resolution x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and theoretical study

Journal Article Park, K T ; Hess, J S ; Klier, K - Journal of Chemical Physics

Supra-valence electron transfer from surface Cs-doped MoS{sub 2}(0002) to electron acceptor adsorbates was investigated by high resolution x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HRXPS) in the valence band region and above the valence band maximum (VBM). Deposition of a sub-monolayer amount of Cs onto the basal plane of MoS{sub 2} introduced a new electron density of states at ca. 1.25 eV above VBM. Angle-resolved HRXPS and theoretical analysis located this electron density in the MoS{sub 2} layer. Upon the reaction with Cl{sub 2}, this Cs-induced photoelectron almost completely disappeared and the Cs 3d and Cl 2p core levels indicated the formation of amore »« less
