摘要
A combined experimental and first principles study of the (2x1)-reconstructed rutile TiO2(011) surface is presented. Our results provide evidence that the surface structure is described by a model that includes onefold coordinated (titanyl) oxygen atoms giving rise to double bonded Ti=O species. These species should play a special role in the enhanced photocatalytic activity of the TiO2(011) surface.
