Abstract: | "Tin dioxide (SnO(2)) has various applications due to its unique surface and electronic properties. These properties are strongly influenced by Sn oxidation states and associated defect chemistries. Recently, the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into less harmful molecules has been demonstrated using SnO(2) catalysts. A common VOC, 2-propanol (isopropyl alcohol, IPA), has been used as a model compound to better understand SnO(2) reaction kinetics. We have used ambient-pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS) to characterize the surface chemistry of IPA and O(2) mixtures on stoichiometric, unreconstructed SnO(2)(110)-(1 x 1) surfaces. AP-XPS experiments were performed for IPA pressures |
