Influence of the anodizing procedure on the structure and the properties of titanium oxide films and its effect on copper nucleation

Reduction of silver complexes: towards an ever more elaborated insight in the influence of the type of ligand on the reaction rate

“…The fact that the anodisation of single grains of a polycrystalline Ti sample can yield different oxide thicknesses, anodic charges and donor densities -and therefore varying electrochemical behaviour -has for example been proved by Kudelka et al [42] and by Delplancke et al [43,44].…”

Oxygen reduction reaction on spontaneously and potentiodynamically formed Au/TiO2 composite surfaces

“…4, too. Therefore, one may conclude that, during their simultaneous spontaneous growth, TiO 2 , which is well known to be amorphous in its early stages of development [36,37], captures gold and does not allow them to develop in any form which may be recognized clearly by SEM or AFM. This is in sound with the evidenced ability of gold to wet TiO 2 surfaces of various crystallographic orientation [38], causing its epitaxial growth.…”

TiO2‐Nanoröhren: Synthese und Anwendungen

“…In einem sauren Elektrolyten (H 2 SO 4 ) kann der gebildete Oxidfilm je nach Anodisierungsbedingungen (Funkenentladung, potentiostatisch oder galvanostatisch) aus Anatas, einer Mischung aus Anatas und Rutil oder aus Rutilkristalliten bestehen. [129,[215][216][217] Berichte, die auf die Gegenwart von Kristalliten in frisch gebildeten Oxidnanoröhren hinweisen und auf HRTEM-Untersuchungen basieren, müssen sehr kritisch untersucht werden, da amorphes TiO 2 besonders anfällig für eine elektronenstrahlinduzierte Kristallisation zu sein scheint. [214] Die gezielte Umwandlung der Röhren in kristallines Material (Anatas, Rutil) durch Tempern wird in Abschnitt 4.1 diskutiert.…”
