Summary: A density functional theory study was conducted on different modes of adsorption of OH-containing molecules, such as ethanol, ethylene glycol, and glycerol, on rutile TiO2(110) surface. The results show that dissociated adsorption is preferred in all cases, with bidentate fully dissociated adsorption having the strongest binding. The number of dissociated OH groups is found to significantly affect the work function changes.

Summary: We investigate the hydroxylation behavior of mixed Co-Fe oxide nanoislands synthesized on a Au(111) surface under exposure to water vapor at vacuum conditions. The presence of Fe dopants within the Co-Fe oxides have opposing effects on the hydroxylation degree, modifying the binding sites and diffusion pathway of H.

Summary: With the help of a DFT + U approach, the structural and electronic properties of sub-monolayer transition metal oxides supported on α-Al2O3 are investigated. The study reveals non-equivalent surface and interface cations in mixed oxides, as well as cation oxidation states different from the expected values. The formation of mixed oxides is influenced by the interplay between cation-cation redox reactions and surface energy considerations. The flexibility of the electronic structure, depending on size, dimensionality, and nature of support, allows for tuning the properties of these oxides for specific applications.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of oxygen vacancies on the O 1s binding energy in CeO2(111) using density functional theory calculations. Comparisons are made between point vacancies in CeO2(111) and complete reduction to Ce2O3. The results show that the reduction of CeO2 by oxygen vacancies has a minor effect on the O 1s binding energy, while the O 1s binding energy is clearly changed when the chemical bond character of the oxygen atom is modified, such as by the formation of OH-groups or carbonates.

Summary: The photochemical activity of CeO2-ZnO photocatalytic material has been enhanced by modifying its morphology. Hollow spheres morphology achieved using a polymeric templating agent shows higher photoactivity under visible light compared to the classic platelets morphology. This novel system is expected to exhibit increased photocatalytic activity in pollution remediation reactions.

Summary: The coverage of O-br groups on the IrO2(110) surface during CH4 oxidation affects the reaction kinetics. Under excess O-br conditions, complete CH4 oxidation dominates and produces CO2, while under O-br-limited conditions, a fraction of the initially adsorbed CH4 oxidizes to CO2 and CO before most of the O-br atoms are deactivated. The regeneration rate of O-br atoms from HObr controls the rate of CH4 and H2O product formation.

Summary: We report on the differences in the surface structure of magnetite (111) prepared under oxidizing and reducing conditions. Both preparations lead to different Fe and O terminations, with small compositional differences in the surface and near-surface regions. Moreover, the adsorption of formic acid induces atomic roughening of the magnetite (111) surface.

Summary: The study investigates the high-temperature oxidation and reduction reactions of ceria nanoparticles and a Cu(111) support. It reveals that a high H-2 dosage is needed to fully reduce the copper support. The work function difference between ceria NPs and the Cu(111) support is measured, showing a decrease after oxidation.

Summary: Density functional theory (DFT) is an important technique to study polarons and their effects in materials. The study conducted a systematic analysis of the theoretical calculations and obtained reliable predictions in agreement with experimental observations. The formation of polarons and their response to strain in rutile TiO2 were investigated, and it was found that different local environments can lead to different responses and affect the stability of the polarons. The accurate description of polaron properties is crucial for understanding their impact on complex phenomena and applications.

Summary: Using the density functional theory (DFT), the effects of Ag and Cu atoms substitution in ceria (CeO2) on the ceria lattice, the oxidation states of metal atoms, and the oxygen vacancy formation energies have been investigated. It has been found that noble metal atoms prefer to be located in the cation layer closer to the surface, and Cu causes a strong lattice distortion contrary to Ag. Ag causes stronger reduction (oxygen loss) than Cu, and Ag atoms tend towards +1 oxidation state, while Cu tends to stay in the +2 oxidation state.

Summary: In this study, the effects of iso-valent heteroatoms replacing Ti4+ cations in two titania polymorphs were investigated using first principles calculations. The presence of dopants can locally modify the geometric and electronic structure of the surface, introducing new states in the band gap. Additionally, rutile and anatase exhibited significantly different reactivity and reducibility.

Summary: Titanomagnetites are reducible spinel-structure oxides with favorable properties, but their deposition at low temperatures is influenced by oxidation conditions, leading to phase separation and heterogeneity in composition. By using high substrate temperatures and low oxygen partial pressures, well-crystallized Fe2TiO4 thin films can be achieved through molecular beam epitaxy.

Summary: The study investigates the dependence of the relative stability of surface and subsurface oxygen vacancies in CeO2 on crystal facets. The results show that the preference of vacancies for surface or subsurface sites is facet- and concentration-dependent, with corresponding locations of Ce3+ polarons. The stability of vacancies on different facets is influenced by packing density, lattice relaxation effects, and localization of excess charge.
