Density functional theory screening of the hybrid double perovskites (MA)2BIBiX6 (BI = K, Cu, Ag, Tl; X = Cl, Br, I) was performed and (MA)2TlBiBr6, isoelectronic with MAPbBr3, was synthesised and found to have a band gap of ∼2.0 eV.

The Density Functional Theory

Within the framework of the density functional theory, the method was developed to calculate the band gap of semiconductors. We have evaluated the band gap for a number of monoatomic and diatomic semiconductors (Sn, Ge, Si, SiC, GaN, C, BN, AlN). The method gives the band gap of almost experimental accuracy. An important point is the fact that the developed method can be used to calculate both localized states (energy deep levels of defects in crystal), and electronic properties of nanostructures.

Solar Water Splitting

Using first-principles density-functional theory calculations, we investigate the advantage of using h-WO3 (and its surfaces) over the larger band gap γ-WO3 phase for the anode in water splitting. We demonstrate that h-WO3 is a good alternative anode material for optimal water splitting efficiencies.

Before And After

AbstractAbsorption of Pb ion on the (n, 0) carbon nanotube (CNT) (n=4, 5, 6) surface, pure and defected with single vacancy, is investigated based on density functional theory. Pristine (n, 0) CNTs can produce a certain degree of chemical adsorption of Pb ion. While a single vacancy is introduced, the adsorption ability of CNTs for Pb ion increases greatly, and the band gap changes significantly before and after adsorption. SV-(6, 0) CNTs have the strongest adsorption ability, and SV-(5, 0) CNTs are the potential material for the Pb ion detection sensor. It is expected that these could be helpful to the design of Pb filters and sensors.
