Insights from density functional theory calculations on heteroatom P-doped ZnIn2S4 bilayer nanosheets with atomic-level charge steering for photocatalytic water splitting.


ABSTRACT: ZnIn2S4 (ZIS) is an efficient photocatalyst for solar hydrogen (H2) generation from water splitting owing to its suitable band gap, excellent photocatalytic behaviour and high stability. Nevertheless, modifications are still necessary to further enhance the photocatalytic performance of ZIS for practical applications. This has led to our interest in exploring phosphorus doping on ZIS for photocatalytic water splitting, which has not been studied till date. Herein, phosphorus-doped ZnIn2S4 (P-ZIS) was modelled via Density Functional Theory to investigate the effects of doping phosphorus on the structural and electronics properties of ZIS as well as its performance toward photocatalytic water splitting. This work revealed that the replac
