At the interface between organic radicals and TiO2(110) single crystals: electronic structure and paramagnetic character.

چکیده
We find that in a paramagnetic pyrene derivative of the nitronyl nitroxide radical deposited on rutile TiO2(110) single crystals the molecules keep/lose their paramagnetic character depending on the local substrate hydroxylation. The first molecular layer may act as a "buffer" on which intact organic magnets are grown.

Nanoscale assembly of paramagnetic organic radicals on Au(111) single crystals.
The successful thin-film deposition of a pyrene-substituted nitronyl nitroxide radical under controlled conditions has been demonstrated. The electronic properties, chemical environment at the interface, and morphology of the thin films have been investigated by a multitechnique approach. Spectroscopic and morphological analyses indicate a Stranski-Krastanov growth mode and weak physisorption o...
متن کاملRole of the substrate in electronic structure, molecular orientation, and morphology of organic thin films: diindenoperylene on rutile TiO2(110).
The results of our multitechnique investigation performed on diindenoperylene thin films deposited on rutile TiO2(110) show island growth, with crystallites nucleating preferentially along the [110] substrate crystallographic axis. The findings evidence that the films' properties at the interface are common to those found for a number of organic molecules deposited on the same substrate, reveal...
متن کاملHigh resolution X-ray photoemission study of nitrogen doped TiO2 rutile single crystals
The electronic structure of nitrogen doped TiO2 prepared by annealing single crystal rutile (110) substrates in NH3 at elevated temperatures was investigated using high resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. NH3 treatment at 600 C introduced N into the TiO2 lattice without concomitant surface reduction of the rutile phase. This doping leads to bandgap narrowing associated with the appeara...
متن کاملCharge-transfer states and optical transitions at the pentacene-TiO2 interface
Pentacenemolecules have recently been observed to form awell-orderedmonolayer on the (110) surface of rutile TiO2, with themolecules adsorbed lying flat, head to tail.With the geometry favorable for direct optical excitation and given its ordered character, this interface seems to provide an intriguingmodel to study charge-transfer excitationswhere the optically excited electrons and holes resi...
متن کاملInfluence of nitrogen doping on the defect formation and surface properties of TiO2 rutile and anatase.
Nitrogen doping-induced changes in the electronic properties, defect formation, and surface structure of TiO2 rutile(110) and anatase(101) single crystals were investigated. No band gap narrowing is observed, but N doping induces localized N 2p states within the band gap just above the valence band. N is present in a N(III) valence state, which facilitates the formation of oxygen vacancies and ...
