X-ray absorption study of the bonding interaction of bi-isonicotinic acid adsorbed on rutile TiO₂ (110)

Summary, in English

N1s x-ray absorption spectra of bi-isonicotinic acid (2,28-bipyridine–4,48-dicarboxylic acid! on rutile TiO2(110) have been studied experimentally and quantum chemically. Differences between multilayer and monolayer spectra are explained by the adsorbate bonding to the substrate. A connection to the electronic coupling in dye-sensitized electrochemical devices is made.
