Theoretical investigations of nitrogen doping on Co 3 O 4 for water dissociation catalytically activity
2018
We report the results of theoretical investigations of nitrogen doping on Co 3 O 4 (100) bulk by means of the plane-wave periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations combined with the Hubbard-U approach and statistical thermodynamics.Using accurate DFT+U calculations, we have shown that bulk Co ions denote charges in value 0.017 - 0.57e. For further water adsorption process studies was selected structures with most changes in charges in Co ions: (3) structure for n = 25%, (2) structure forn = 12.5% and structure for (1) structure.
Influence of Nitrogen Doping on Device Operation for TiO 2 -Based Solid-State Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells: Photo-Physics from Materials to Devices
2016
International audience; Solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (ssDSSC) constitute a major approach to photovoltaic energy conversion with efficiencies over 8% reported thanks to the rational design of efficient porous metal oxide electrodes, organic chromophores, and hole transporters. Among the various strategies used to push the performance ahead, doping of the nanocrystalline titanium dioxide (TiO 2) electrode is regularly proposed to extend the photo-activity of the materials into the visible range. However, although various beneficial effects for device performance have been observed in the literature, they remain strongly dependent on the method used for the production of the metal o…
