We review oxygen K-edge X-ray absorption spectra of both molecules and solids. We start
with an overview of the main experimental aspects of oxygen K-edge X-ray absorption …

Carbon dioxide capture and mitigation form a key part of the technological response to
combat climate change and reduce CO2 emissions. Solid materials capable of reversibly …

Reducibility is an essential characteristic of oxide catalysts in oxidation reactions following
the Mars–van Krevelen mechanism. A typical descriptor of the reducibility of an oxide is the …

Model systems are very important to identify the working principles of real catalysts, and to
develop concepts that can be used in the design of new catalytic materials. In this review we …

The review discusses how CO2 surface chemistry has developed since the early 1950s.
Emphasis is given to studies of well-characterized surfaces of metals, oxides and some …

Metal oxides play a very important role in many areas of chemistry, physics, and materials
science. 1-5 The metal elements are able to form a large diversity of oxide compounds. 6 …

Using a combination of state-of-the-art computational modeling and Fourier transform
infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy study of the surface species formed during interaction of CO2 …
