First-Principle Study on the Photocatalystic Properties of Tungsten Doped Monoclinic BiVO₄ Crystallites

Abstract:

In this paper, the photocatalytic properties of W-doped monoclinic BiVO₄ were studied by CASTEP of MS-5.5 software under PWPP based on density function theory (DFT). The results showed that the band gap narrowed and the absorption edge red shifted after 5d atomic orbit of W mixing into the valence band of BiVO₄ crystallites, which could effectively improve the photocatalytic activity of BiVO₄ crystallites. The calculated results also implied that the photocatalytic properties of monoclinic BiVO₄ crystallites could be improved by doping the transition metal with 5d⁴ orbital.
