Exploratory Research

We propose to study the electronic structure and electron dynamics at molecule/solid-surface interfaces in the context of clean energy generation, and green house gas capture. The theoretical…

Time-dependent Nonadiabatic Investigations on the Photo-generated Carrier Dynamics at TiO2/molecule Interfaces

Lead Institution

University of Pittsburgh

Principal Investigator

Hrvoje Petek

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

Band gap excitation of TiO2 instigates photocatalytic reactions. In the presence of molecular adsorbates the generated holes and electrons act as the reactants in the oxidation and reduction…
