Abstract

Dedicated to Professor Xiuwen Han on the occasion of her 80th birthday
The development of metal oxides with specific facet exposure for better catalytic performance in targeted applications has been well-documented. However, the understanding of surface structure-activity correlation is severely hindered by the current poor resolution of conventional surface characterization tools. In this mini-review, some of the latest research developments on the characterization of the surface structure and properties of faceted ZnO and TiO2 by probe-assisted nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) are discussed.
