The effect of metal-cation vacancies on vanadium antimonate surface properties. A theoretical study

In this work, we studied the distribution of V and Sb vacancies in the rutile-type vanadium antimonate phase and the influence of these cationic defects on the VSbO4(110) surface properties. We performed density functional theory (DFT) calculations to compute the energy stability of bulk supercells...
