Native defects in LiTaO3 photocatalyst : a DFT study

First principle calculations based on density-functional theory were conducted to investigate the formation energies of various native defects in lithium tantalate, LiTaO3, a prospective photo catalyst for the splitting of water. The formation of various defects is found to be sensitive to the growt...
