<div dir="ltr"><div><br></div>I was going through the paper "wang et. al. ACS nano Vol3, No.10, 2995-3000, (2009)" where the binding energy of Titanium on Graphene oxide (figure:3) was done using below mentioned formula:<br><div>Eb (Ti) = E(GO) + E(Ti) - E(Ti/GO)<br><br></div><div>Here I have a confusion, as for E(GO) some of the oxygen atoms are double bonded with the Graphene sheet, but in E(Ti/GO) few oxygen breaks one of the bond from the sheet and get attached to Ti atom. So here the final structure of Ti-with-GO is completely different. So my question is that is the way of calculating the Binding energy of Ti on Grapehene oxide is correct? If yes then can anyone explain this?<br><br></div><div>With best regards,<br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Rajiv Kumar Chouhan,<br>Post-Doctoral Fellow,<br>Boise State University,<br></span></div><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Idhao-</span>83725</div></div>
