Barium indium oxides (BaIn2O4, Ba4In6O13, Ba2In2O5, Ba3In2O6, and Ba5In2O8) were synthesized by the citric process and characterized by powder x-ray diffraction. The optical absorption properties of these compounds were investigated by UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. It was found that with the increase of the mole ratio of In2O3 in the formula the optical absorption edges of these oxides shift to the longer wavelength side monotonically. The photocatalytic H2 and O2 evolutions under visible light irradiation (λ > 420 nm) from aqueous CH3OH/H2O and AgNO3/H2O solutions were performed. Among these oxides, BaIn2O4 was the most stable compound, and other compounds were not stable chemically in the case of water and visible light irradiation.

AbstractThe effects of C cation and S cation doping on the electronic structures and optical properties of SrTiO3 are investigated by density function theory (DFT) calculations. The calculated results reveal that the top of the valence band is predominately made up of the O 2p states for the pure SrTiO3. When SrTiO3 was doped with C cation and S cation, the top of the valence bands consists mainly of O 2p+C 2s hybrid orbitals and O 2p+S 3s hybrid orbitals, respectively. The band gap of SrTiO3 is narrowed by the doping with C cation and S cation, especially for the C and S-codoped SrTiO3. Moreover, the red shifts of the absorption edge are found by the calculated optical properties, which is consistent with reported experiment results. It is the explanation for their visible light respondency by the presence of C 2s and S 3s states on the upper edge of the valence band. All of these results can explain the good photocatalytic properties of C, S cation-codoped SrTiO3 under visible light irradiation.
