Molybdenum(VI) oxide (MoO<sub>3</sub>) is used in a number of technical processes such as gas filtration and heterogeneous catalysis. In these applications, the adsorption and dissociation of water on the surface can influence the chemistry of MoO<sub>3</sub> and thus the course of heterogeneous reactions. We use ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to study the interaction of water with a stoichiometric MoO<sub>3</sub> surface and a MoO<sub>3</sub> surface that features oxygen defe ...[more]
