Abstract: Microscopic adsorption modes of Zn(Ⅱ) on anatase TiO2-water interface were studied using extended X-ray absorption fine structure(EXAFS) spectroscopy. Quantitative analysis of the EXAFS spectra showed that the microscopic structure of Zn(Ⅱ) on anatase TiO2 is four coordinate complex, and there are at least two types of bonding based on the average Ti—Zn distances in the second sphere. Two different geometry configurations of single-corner(SC) and double-corner(DC) for adsorption on the(101) surface cluster were calculated using DFT method. The Zn—Ti distances are 0.369 nm and 0.335 nm for the single-corner adsorption mode and double-corner adsorption mode, respectively. Therefore, the EXAFS fitting data, R1=0.371 nm, R2=0.332 nm, can be well distinguished for SC and DC mode respectively. The calculation results also showed that the optimized Zn—O average distance of Zn—O tetrahedron is about 0.200 nm, which agree with the EXAFS results. These show that Zn was adsorbed onto TiO2 surfaces in different metastable equilibrium state(MEA) under the same thermodynamic conditions.
