The activation of the 110 TiO rutile surface by deposition of alkali 2 metal atoms has been the subject of some recent experimental studies. These results indicate a reduction of the surface when sodium atoms are deposited on it. In the present work, this process has been studied by means of ab init

β¦ Synopsis
We have performed first-principles molecular dynamics calculations of water adsorption on TiO2 (110). We find that dissociative adsorption occurs at the fivefold-coordinated Ti site resulting in the formation of two types of hydroxyl group. The vibrational spectra calculated from this hydroxylated surface show that a clear stretch frequency is present for only one of these groups, with vibrations from the other hydroxyl broadened due to hydrogen bonding between the two hydroxyl groups.
