Abstract
N 1s x-ray absorption spectra of bi-isonicotinic acid (2,2'-bipyridine-4,4( ')-dicarboxylic acid) on rutile TiO2(110) have been studied experimentally and quantum chemically. Differences between multilayer and monolayer spectr a are explained by the adsorbate bonding to the substrate. A connection to the electronic coupling in dye-sensitized electrochemical devices is made. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics. [S0021-9606(00)70709-4].
