PbTaO₂N is a mixed-anion oxynitride semiconductor combining lead, tantalum, oxygen, and nitrogen in a single crystalline phase. This is an experimental research material developed to engineer the bandgap and electronic properties of tantalum-based semiconductors for photocatalytic applications. The nitrogen incorporation narrows the bandgap compared to oxide-only analogues, making it potentially useful for visible-light photocatalysis, though it remains largely in the development phase with limited commercial deployment.
