| Title: | Engineering the band gap states of the rutile TiO2(110) surface by modulating the active heteroatom | Authors: | Yu, Y Yang, X Zhao, Y Zhang, X An, L Huang, M Chen, G Zhang, R |
Issue Date: | 9-Jul-2018 | Source: | Angewandte chemie international edition, 9 July 2018, v. 57, no. 28, p. 8550-8554 | Abstract: | Introducing band gap states to TiO2 photocatalysts is an efficient strategy for expanding the range of accessible energy available in the solar spectrum. However, few approaches are able to introduce band gap states and improve photocatalytic performance simultaneously. Introducing band gap states by creating surface disorder can incapacitate reactivity where unambiguous adsorption sites are a prerequisite. An alternative method for introduction of band gap states is demonstrated in which selected heteroatoms are implanted at preferred surface sites. Theoretical prediction and experimental verification reveal that the implanted heteroatoms not only introduce band gap states without creating surface disorder, but also function as active sites for the Cr-VI reduction reaction. This promising approach may be applicable to the surfaces of other solar harvesting materials where engineered band gap states could be used to tune photophysical and -catalytic properties. | Keywords: | Band gap states Cr-VI reduction Density functional theory Rutile TiO2 Substitutional N doping |
