A collaboration involving experimental and computational chemical physicists has revealed new clues as to how electrons in titanium dioxide interact with light. The researchers used two-photon photoemission (2PPE), a technique utilizing ultrafast laser pulses, to distinguish electrons localized at surface defects from electrons in the bulk. The findings could have a lasting impact on the design of semiconductor devices with photocatalytic applications, improving the efficiency at which sunlight
