Tailoring Bandgap of Perovskite BaTiO3 by Transition Metals Co-Doping for Visible-Light Photoelectrical Applications: A First-Principles Study

The physical and chemical properties of V-M″ and Nb-M″ (M″ is 3d or 4d transition metal) co-doped BaTiO3 were studied by first-principles calculation based on density functional theory. Our calculation results show that V-M″ co-doping is more favorable than Nb...
