Abstract:Transition metal carbides are recently considered to be potential substitutes to platinum counter electrode due to their low cost, high catalytic activity and good thermal stability. In this paper, we investigate the structural, electronics, and optical properties of one of the transition metal carbides (Cr3C). The structural and electronic properties were computed using the first principles approach, a generalized gradient approximation (PBE-GGA) as exchange correlation functional within density functional th… Show more
