Deep Impurity

The electronic structures of S -doped TiO 2 have been carried out by first-principles calculations based on density functional theory with plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method. Comparing anion doping with cation doping in anatase and rutile, we found different energy band structures and origins of photoactivity of S -doped TiO 2. For anion-doped TiO 2, new S –3p bands appear and which lie slightly above the top of the O –2p valence band. It plays a significant role in increasing absorbance in the visible region, resulting in improvement in photocatalytic activity under visible-light irradiation. For cation-doped TiO 2, the potential of the O –2p valence band shift much downwards, yielding the stronger oxidative power than that of undoped and S anion-doped TiO 2. Nevertheless, the deep impurity states in BG (bond gap) that originate from the S -dopant have negative effects on the recombination of the photoexcited electrons and holes. From our calculated results, we can explain their differences in photocatalytic activity under visible-light irradiation.

Synergic Effect

CdS/Ag2S/g-C3N4 ternary composites showed excellent photocatalytic performance toward H2 evolution. Their improved photocatalytic activity could be attributed not only to the synergic effect, but also to the introduction of Ag2S.
