Mono- and co-doped NaTaO3 for visible light photocatalysis.
Electronic structures of doped NaTaO3 compounds are of significant interest to visible light photocatalysis. This work involves the study of the band gap, band edge potentials, and thermodynamic stability of certain mono-doped and co-doped NaTaO3 systems, using DFT-PBE as well as hybrid (PBE0) functional calculations. Doping of certain non-magnetic cations (Ti, V, Cu, Zn, W, In, Sn, Sb, Ce, and...
متن کاملSolvothermal synthesis of N-doped TiO2 nanotubes for visible-light-responsive photocatalysis.
Visible-light-responsive tubular N-doped TiO2 nanocrystallites were synthesized via an environment-conscious solvothermal treatment of protonated titanate nanotubes in an NH4Cl/ethanol/water solution.
متن کاملAdsorption Behaviors of Curcumin on N-doped TiO2 Anatase Nanoparticles: Density Functional Theory Calculations
The density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to get information concerning the interaction of curcumin with pristine and N-doped TiO2 anatase nanoparticles. Three adsorption geometries of curcumin over the TiO2 anatase nanoparticles were studied in order to fully exploit the sensing properties of TiO2 nanoparticles. Curcumin molecule adsorbs on the fivefold coordinated titanium si...
متن کاملSolar synthesis: prospects in visible light photocatalysis.
Chemists have long aspired to synthesize molecules the way that plants do-using sunlight to facilitate the construction of complex molecular architectures. Nevertheless, the use of visible light in photochemical synthesis is fundamentally challenging because organic molecules tend not to interact with the wavelengths of visible light that are most strongly emitted in the solar spectrum. Recent ...
متن کاملNew insights into the origin of visible light photocatalytic activity of nitrogen-doped and oxygen-deficient anatase TiO2.
The spin-polarized plane-wave pseudopotential method, based on density-functional theory, has been used to calculate the electronic band structures and the optical absorption spectra of nitrogen-doped and oxygen-deficient anatase TiO2. The calculated results are in good agreement with our experimental measurements. These ab initio calculations reveal that the optical absorption of nitrogen-dope...
