SUMMARY:2013 Spring Graduate Colloquium Series - Indra-Mani Ghimire:Oxygen Vacancies Inhibiting Photoactivity on TiO2 
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:In a recent scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) study, out of two active=0D=0A=
sites on trimethyl-acetic-acid-dosed Ti02, the reaction readily occurs at=0D=0A=
regular Ti sites but is completely inhibited at oxygen vacancy (Vo) defects.=0D=0A=
This inertness at Vo is due to excess unpaired electrons there since they=0D=0A=
promptly recombine with incoming photoexcited holes. It is not due to=0D=0A=
the less active adsorption coefficient or electron transfer from Vo (as=0D=0A=
shown by density functional theory and electron energy loss=0D=0A=
spectroscopy). This effective “screening” is site specific and spatially=0D=0A=
confined, affecting most on Vo sites and less so at adjacent Ti sites.=0D=0A=
