Abstract
Intermolecular hydrogen-bonding in thick films of isonicotinic acid evaporated onto rutile TiO2(110) has been investigated with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The rate of deposition is found to be a key factor in overcoming the kinetic barriers to extensive hydrogenbond formation, which, when present, gives rise to large energy shifts between bulk and surface in both the Nls XPS and XAS. The origin of the surface core-level shift is attributed to the presence of non-hydrogenbonded nitrogen atoms in the surface layer.
