Abstract

The adsorption and dissociation of H₂O on clean TiO₂(110) and metal-deposited M/TiO₂(110) (M = Pt and Au) surfaces were studied by performing calculations of periodic density-functional theory. M/TiO₂(110) surfaces catalytically decompose H₂O with barriers (decreased by ca. 15-19 kcal/mol) much smaller than for their clean TiO₂(110) counterparts. The Au-deposited TiO₂ surface has the least energy barrier (ca. 3.5 kcal/mol less than the Pt analogue), explicable with a Bader charge analysis.
