| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This work is aimed at finding the ways how we can optimize heterogeneous photocatalytic systems including metal oxide photocatalysts by inspecting atomic dynamical properties and electronic properties on the inhomogeneous systems via first principles dynamical simulations. Specifically, structures of adsorbates and boundaries equilibrated at room temperature conditions on the various kind of surfaces, electronic properties caused by the structures, those caused by co-catalysts, and the effects on the electronic properties from additives added to reactive aqueous solution have been elucidated on the heterogeneous systems including metal oxide photocatalysts including V, Ti, W, In, or Ta atoms and so on. We have demonstrated that the first principles approach based on local density approximation have a potential to design inhomogeneous photocatalytic systems with reliability in practical level if the dynamics and the electronic structures of the whole system are taken into account.
