In order to obtain a detailed understanding of organic electronic devices such as dye-sensitized solar cells, one has to characterize the interactions of organic molecules with oxide substrates at the atomic level. Thus, we have studied the adsorption and self-metalation of tetraphenylporphyrin (2HTPP) on TiO₂(110) - 1 × 1 with X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM). Upon adsorption at room temperature, the first monolayer of 2HTPP is protonated, forming porphyrin diacid (4HTPP²⁺). As the surface is heated to 400 K, all unprotonated 2HTPP molecules in the second layer metalate, forming titanyl tetraphenylporphyrin (TiOTPP), but the protonated molecules in the first layer stay intact. As the surface is heated further to 550 K even the protonated 4HTPP²⁺ molecules metalate and only TiOTPP remain on the surface^a. Supported by the DFG through FOR 1878 (funCOS), the Chinese Scholarship Council and BayCHINA.
