The interaction of the ionic liquid [C C Im][BF ] with anatase TiO , a model photoanode material, has been studied using a combination of synchrotron radiation photoelectron spectroscopy and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. The system is of interest as a model for fundamental electrolyte-electrode and dye-sensitized solar cells. The initial interaction involves degradation of the [BF ] anion, resulting in incorporation of F into O vacancies in the anatase surface. At low coverages, [C C Im][BF ] is found to order at the anatase(101) surface via electrostatic attraction, with the imidazolium ring oriented 32±4° from the anatase TiO surface. As the coverage of ionic liquid increases, the influence of the oxide surface on the topmost layers is reduced and the ordering is lost.
使用同步辐射光电子能谱和近边X射线吸收精细结构光谱相结合的方法,研究了离子液体[C C Im][BF ]与作为模型光阳极材料的锐钛矿型TiO 的相互作用。该体系作为基本电解质-电极和染料敏化太阳能电池的模型备受关注。初始相互作用涉及[BF ]阴离子的降解,导致F掺入锐钛矿表面的O空位中。在低覆盖度下,发现[C C Im][BF ]通过静电引力在锐钛矿(101)表面有序排列,咪唑环与锐钛矿TiO 表面呈32±4°取向。随着离子液体覆盖度的增加,氧化物表面对最顶层的影响减小,有序排列消失。
