摘要
In this work, the band structure, density of states and optical property of N or Cr-doped and N+Cr co-doped TiO2 anatase were studied by the plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method based on the first-principle density functional theory. The results shows that the N2p orbital overlaps with the Fermi level in single N-doping system and the impurity level of single Cr-doping system is mainly contributed by the hybridization of O2p and Cr3d orbitals. The co-doping of N and Cr has led to an important decreasing of the conduction band and the valence band in contrast with Fermi level, has formed an impurity level and reduced the forbidden band width on the basis of the original band. Besides, the optical absorption of the TiO2 anatase red-shifts with the increase of absorption coefficient and the reduction of energy loss, which largely enhances the photo-catalysis efficiency of TiO2 © 2015, Chongqing Functional Materials Periodical Press Co.
