The perovskite oxynitride SrTaO2N is a promising compound for solar energy conversion because it has strong visible light absorption at wavelengths as long as 650 nm. However, the photocatalytic activity of SrTaO2N is generally very poor. We managed to improve its activity by incorporating Sr in its B site.
