Role of Ag+ in the Band Structures and Photocatalytic Properties of AgMO3 (M: Ta and Nb) with the Perovskite Structure
Abstract
Photophysical and photocatalytic properties of perovskite-type materials AgMO 3 (M: Ta and Nb) consisting of Ag + and d 0 ions were investigated. The band gaps of AgTaO 3 and AgNbO 3 were 3.4 and 2.8 eV, respectively, being 0.6 eV smaller than the band gaps of NaTaO 3 (4.0 eV) and NaNbO 3, even if the crystal structures of AgMO 3 were similar to those of NaMO 3 . It was found from the electronic band structure study, using the plane-wave-based density functional method, that a hybrid orbital of Ag 4d and O 2p formed a valence band at a more negative level than O 2p orbitals. AgTaO 3 showed photocatalytic activity for pure water splitting into H 2 and O 2 under UV-light irradiation. AgNbO 3 has arisen as a new visible-light-driven photocatalyst possessing the ability to evolve H 2 or O 2 from water in the presence of sacrificial reagents.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
