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.

Experimental Values

In this paper, the structural, elastic, electronic and thermodynamic properties of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] intermetallic compound are investigated using pseudopotential method based on density functional theory (DFT) under pressure. In this work, the calculated lattice constant and bulk modulus are in accordance with experimental values at zero temperature and zero pressure. The bulk modulus [Formula: see text], shear modulus [Formula: see text] and Young’s modulus [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] increase with the increasing external pressure. It is noted that [Formula: see text] of investigated compound has the largest [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The results of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] have the same change trend, but [Formula: see text] presents an irregular change for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The density of states for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are investigated at 0, 30 and 50 GPa. In addition, the thermodynamic properties as a function of temperature at different pressure are also studied.

First-principle ultrasoft pseudo potential approach of the plane wave based on density functional theory (DFT) has been used for studying the electronic characterization and optical properties of ZnO and Fe, Co doped ZnO. The results show that the doping impurities change the lattice parameters a little, but bring more changes in the electronic structures. The band gaps are broadened by doping, and the Fermi level accesses to the conduction band which will lead the system to show the character of metallic properties. The dielectric function and absorption peaks are identified and the changes compared to pure ZnO are analyzed in detail.

TiO2, as photosensitive materials, has attracted much attention owing to its potential application in the solution of environmental pollution during the past decades. Four doped TiO2systems were constructed and studied by using the first principle based Density Functional Theory .The results indicate that P-doped and N-doped TiO2all have better light absorption in the visible light area than pristine TiO2although the band gap of N-doped system reduced less. However, the band gap of F-doped and Cl-doped TiO2increase a little, which causing the absorption to decrease. We suggest from the results that the P atom and N atom are valuable in the modification of TiO2.
