Abstract

The photocatalytic activity of titanium dioxide in visible range is a great target in material science. In order to promote visible solar radiation absorption by this semiconductor, its structure needs to be modified. A theoretical study of TiO2 anatase phase (TiO2-a) has been studied under some modifications: oxygen vacancies (TiO2-OV); oxygen vacancies mediated by atomic hydrogen (TiO2-H); nitrogen doped (TiO2-N); sulfur doped (TiO2-S) and; fluorine doped (TiO2-F). The results of band structures, density of states, band gap, conductivity and optical properties are analyzed for those different conditions.
