ZnTaO2N
semiconductor· ZnTaO2N
ZnTaO2N is an oxynitride semiconductor compound combining zinc, tantalum, oxygen, and nitrogen. This is a research material within the broader family of transition metal oxynitrides, designed to extend visible-light absorption and improve photocatalytic performance compared to conventional oxide semiconductors. The compound is primarily under investigation for photocatalytic water splitting and environmental remediation applications, where its tunable bandgap and enhanced light absorption offer potential advantages over traditional TiO₂ and other oxide photocatalysts.
