The electronic and magnetic properties of TiO$_2$, TiO$_{1.75}$, TiO$_{1.75}$N$_{0.25}$, and TiO$_{1.75}$F$_{0.25}$ compounds have been studied by using \emph{ab initio} electronic structure calculations. TiO$_2$ is found to evolve from a…

Systematic investigation of atomic structure of N-ion implanted TiO2 (thin films and bulk ceramics) was performed by XPS measurements (core levels and valence bands) and first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In bulk…

Both theoretical and experimental analysis are carried out to understand the physical properties of the fascinating electronic and optical properties of antimony tungstate (Sb$_2$WO$_6$). The nanosized ($\sim 40-80~nm$) material is produced…

Effect of uncompensated Ga-V co-doping on structural phase transition, grain growth process and optical properties of TiO2 is reported here. Inhibition of phase transition due to co-doping is confirmed by X-ray diffraction measurement.…

DFT and AIMD are used to investigate the structural, stability, electronic, thermal, and optical properties of the quasi-2D C2N2O structure. The structure exhibits thermal and energy stability, signifying robustness under ambient…

Introducing an isolated intermediate band (IB) into a wide band gap semiconductor can potentially improve the optical absorption of the material beyond the Shockley-Queisser limitation for solar cells. Here, we present a systematic study of…

GaSb:N displays promise towards realization of optoelectronic devices accessing the mid-infrared wavelength regime. Theoretical and experimental results on its electronic and optical properties are however few. To address this, we present a…

We theoretically investigate Sn(II) phosphates as optoelectronic materials using first principles calculations. We focus on known prototype materials Sn$_n$P$_2$O$_{5+n}$ (n=2, 3, 4, 5) and a previously unreported compound, SnP$_2$O$_6$…

Anatase TiO2 is an indirect band-gap material with large degree of sub-stoichiometry, selective excitation of its native defect reveals polychromatic emission in blue, green and red spectral regions due to self trapped excitons and…

We have used density functional theory calculations based on the projector augmented wave method to investigate the electronic structure of Au-incorporated anatase TiO$_2$(001) surface. Due to the coordination with several level oxygens, Au…

We report the existence of metallic two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) at the (001) and (101) surfaces of bulk-insulating TiO2 anatase due to local chemical doping by oxygen vacancies in the near-surface region. Using angle-resolved…

The formation energies and electronic structure of europium doped zinc oxide has been determined using DFT and many-body $GW$ methods. In the absence of intrisic defects we find that the europium-$f$ states are located in the ZnO band gap…

This study investigates the novelty of the crystalline and electronic structure of (Mg,Ti)-doped ZnO and the co-doped Zn1-x-yMgxTiyO structures using Gaussian and plane-wave basis sets, as implemented in the CP2K code. The goal of…
