The Role of Interstitials and Surface Defects on Oxidation and Reduction Reactions on Titania

This thesis focuses on understanding the influence of defect sites in titanium dioxide that drive many types of thermal and photochemical reactions. Two of the most common defects in vacuum are titanium interstitials and oxygen vacancies. Molecular oxygen fills oxygen vacancies and creates oxygen ad...
