Electrografted interfaces on metal oxides for catalysis with highest stability

Diazonium salts were electrografted onto transparent conductive oxides as stable alternatives to conventional anchoring groups for the surface immobilisation of molecular species which are relevant as electrocatalysts or photosensitisers. The interface formation, structure and stability was investigated i.a. with surface sensitive in situ ATR-IR spectroscopy, in combination with (spectro)electrochemistry.

High electromagnetic field enhancement of TiO2 nanotubes electrodes

Inez Weidinger and coworkers have published a joint paper of three Unicat groups in Angewandte Chemie. They have created nanotubular TiO2 electrodes with unpreceded local light enhancement within the tubes. These nano-electrodes can be used for enhancing photocatalytic processes at the TiO2 interface and for surface enhanced spectroscopy.
