Density functional theory study of the adsorption of NO2 molecule on Nitrogen-doped TiO2 anatase nanoparticles
Authors
Abstract:
Adsorption of NO2 molecule on pristine and N-doped TiO2 anatase nanoparticles have been studied using the density functional theory (DFT) technique. The structural properties (such as bond lengths and bond angles) and the electronic properties (such as density of states, band structures and atomic partial charges) have been computed for considered nanoparticles. The results show that, the adsorption of NO2 molecule on N-doped nanoparticles is more energetically favorable than the adsorption of NO2 molecule on the pure TiO2 nanoparticles. However, on the base of the obtained results, the N-doped TiO2 nanoparticles can be used in NO2 sensing and removing applications.

Density functional theory calculations were carried out to study the interaction of heroin molecule with pristine and N-dopedTiO2 anatase nanoparticles. The oxygen atom of heroin molecule was found to be the binding site on the heroin molecule. In contrast, the binding site of TiO2 nanoparticle was positioned over the fivefold coordinated titanium atoms. The results showed that the adsorption e...
