Nuclear quadrupole interaction at Sc in the anatase and rutile modifications of TiO2: Time- differential perturbed-angular-correlation measurements and ab initio calculations
The nuclear quadrupole interaction of the first excited I=1 state of Sc in the anatase and rutile modifications of bulk TiO2 was determined by time-differential perturbed-angular correlation of rays. New LaBr3 Ce scintillators with excellent energy resolution allowed us to separate the 68 and 78 keV lines of the cascade. For anatase, an almost axially symmetric electric field gradient EFG with ...
متن کاملHydrogen Impurity Defects in Rutile TiO2
Hydrogen-related defects play crucial roles in determining physical properties of their host oxides. In this work, we report our systematic experimental and theoretical (based on density functional theory) studies of the defect states formed in hydrogenated-rutile TiO2 in gaseous H2 and atomic H. In gas-hydrogenated TiO2, the incorporated hydrogen tends to occupy the oxygen vacancy site and neg...
متن کاملSelf-Consistent Supercell Band-Structure Calculations for the Investigation of the Electric Field Gradient at Impurity Sites in Cd Metal
The electric field gradient (EFG) at the nuclei of the 5 sp impurities In, Sn, Sb, I and Xe in Cd metal is investigated on the basis of supercell band structure calculations of C d15M (M = I n , . . . , Xe). The theoretical results show the same trend as the experimental findings. The differences in the EFG for different impurities are related to the charge distribution and partial densities of...
متن کاملTailoring the Energy Band Gap of Transition Metal Doped TiO2 Thin Film
Water splitting for hydrogen production under sunlight using TiO2 as photo catalyst provides a better route for solar energy and attracts the attention of many researchers. The photo catalytic activity of TiO2 under sunlight irradiation depends on the band gap energy. The transition metal doped TiO2 shows an edge over TiO2 in optical absorbance and photo catalytic activity. Thin film of Cr dope...
متن کاملRutile TiO2 nanobundles on reduced graphene oxides as anode materials for Li ion batteries.
A simple and steerable method was adopted to synthesize well-distributed rutile TiO2 nanobundles on reduced graphene oxides through two-step hydrothermal methods. The rutile TiO2-RGO composites were used as the anode materials in lithium ion batteries for investigation, which had an original morphology and a reversible capacity of 300 mA h g(-1) at 0.6 C and 200 mA h g(-1) at 1.2 C after 500 cy...
