The interaction between an alkoxy group and the TiO2 surface can not only enhance the Eads of dyes remarkably, but can also effectively inhibit the electron recombination process by decreasing the surface area offering charge recombination sites.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
