摘要

Titanium dioxide is one of the most promising materials for many applications such as photovoltaics and photocatalysis. Non-metal doping of TiO2 is widely used to improve the photoconversion efficiency by shifting the absorption edge from the UV to visible-light region. Here, we employ hybrid density-functional calculations to investigate the energetics and optical properties of carbon (C) impurities in rutile TiO2. The predominant configurations of the C impurities are identified through the calculated formation energies under O-poor and O-rich growth conditions. Under the O-poor condition, we find that C occupying the oxygen site (C-O) is energetically favorable for Fermi-level values near the conduction band minimum (n-type TiO2), and acts as a double acceptor. Under the O-rich condition, the C-i-V-Ti complex is energetically favorable, and is exclusively stable in the neutral charge state. We also find that interstitial hydrogen (H-i) can bind to C-O, forming a C-O-H-i complex. Our results suggest that C-O and C-O-H-i are a cause of visible-light absorption under oxygen deficient growth conditions.
