Atomic-Scale Study of Ambient-Pressure Redox-Induced Changes for an Oxide-Supported Submonolayer Catalyst: VO<sub><i>x</i></sub>/α-TiO<sub>2</sub>(110)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The activity of supported catalysts is strongly linked to the structure of the surface species. However, direct in situ structural measurements of submonolayer catalysts are lacking. Using in situ X-ray standing wave analysis combined with ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy, we observed reversible redox-induced surface cation dynamics for three-fourths of a monolayer of vanadia grown by atomic-layer deposition on an α-TiO 2 (110) surface. On the basis of first-principles density functional theory calculations, we propose vanadia submonolayer structures that agree with and suggest explanations for the observed redox-induced structural changes. Under oxidation conditions, the correlated submonolayer structure is a 2D trimer-decorated polymeric chain along the rutile [−1 1 0] direction; under reducing conditions, the more stable polymeric chain remains unreduced, whereas the less stable decorating trimers become reduced and uncorrelated with the support lattice. These results show that a large fraction of V sites retains redox activity at submonolayer V coverages.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
