According to the electronic structures of these metals, their potential curves, cohesive energies, lattice parameters, elasticity and the dependence of linear thermal expansion coefficients on temperature were calculated. The electronic structures and characteristic properties of these metals with fcc and hcp structures and liquid states were studied.展开更多

It was found that LiBiO_3 doped with V, Nb, and Ta presented distinctly stronger covalent interactions in M-O(M=V, Nb, and Ta) than Bi-O, thus resulting in mild distortion of the structure and facilitating the separation of photogenerated carriers. Furthermore, the hybridizations of Bi-6s, M-d(M=V, Nb, and Ta) and O-2p widened the valence and conduction bands, which promoted transmission of photogenerated carriers in the band edge and thus caused better photocatalytic performance.展开更多
