First-principles study on the synergistic regulation of magnetic and photocatalytic properties of ZnS by intrinsic point defects (VZn, Hi) and F−/Cu1+/2+
Key Points
Enhanced magnetic properties observed in ZnS due to point defects and F−/Cu1+/2+ interactions.
The study highlights how intrinsic point defects, specifically VZn and Hi, influence ZnS properties.
An observational approach reveals significant changes in ZnS's photocatalytic activity under specific conditions.
Findings may enable new applications in materials science, particularly in photocatalysis and magnetism.
