Research Abstract

An apparent local surface structural change at nanoscale was observed by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) on a TiOs surface upon illumination of ultra-violet (UV) light. This phenomenon was reversible with UV light irradiation, and was interpreted to be due to the local accumulation of photoexcited states. This is the first real-space observation of inhomogeneous local charge distribution under UV light irradiation at nanoscale on a semiconductive photocatalyst surface, which may help identifying the photocatalytic active sites and elucidating the reaction mechanisms over them.
