  Exposing the (111) surface of the topological insulator Bi2Se3 to carbon
monoxide results in strong shifts of the features observed in angle-resolved
photoemission. The behavior is very similar to an often reported `aging' effect
of the surface and it is concluded that this aging is most likely due to the
adsorption of rest gas molecules. The spectral changes are also similar to
those recently reported in connection with the adsorption of the magnetic
adatom Fe. All spectral changes can be explained by a simultaneous confinement
of the conduction band and valence band states. This is only possible because
of the unusual bulk electronic structure of Bi2Se3. The valence band
quantization leads to spectral features which resemble those of a band gap
opening at the Dirac point.
