Add to ORKGTiO2 is known to change its wetting properties under UV light. In this thesis, the photoinduced hydrophilicity (PIH) of TiO2 surfaces is examined with the goal of extending the range of wavelengths to the visible and NIR regions. Chapter 2 examines the wetting properties of sub-stoichiometric titanium dioxide (TiO2-x). Single crystal rutile (110) TiO2 surfaces were reduced (TiO2-x where x<0.06) and characterized using XRD, XPS, UV-Vis spectrophotometry, and AFM. The increase in wetting of the surfaces under ultraviolet (UV) and visible light irradiation was investigated by contact angle analysis. Conversion back to their original hydrophobicity was attained by IR heating. Complete wetting by water was measured for all samples, includin...
