Epilayer control of photodeposited materials during UV photocatalysis
Epilayer control of photoassisted oxidation and reduction on the ferroelectric PbTiO 3 polar surface was investigated. Photo-oxidation of a AgNO 3 electrolyte resulting in formation of Ag 7 NO 11 particles was observed on the PbTiO 3 / Nb : SrTiO 3 film surface; whereas PbTiO 3 / SrRuO 3 / SrTiO 3 l...

Zusammenfassung: | Epilayer control of photoassisted oxidation and reduction on the ferroelectric
PbTiO

polar surface was investigated. Photo-oxidation of a
AgNO
3
electrolyte resulting in formation of
Ag
7
NO
11
particles was observed on the
PbTiO
3
/
Nb
:
SrTiO

film surface; whereas
PbTiO

/
SrRuO

/
SrTiO

leads to
AgNO
3
reduction under UV illumination. The oxidation reaction resulting in the formation of
Ag
7
NO

is explained in terms of a rectifying interface between
PbTiO

and
Nb
