The electron polaron is found to be less stable at the interface than in the bulk by 0.18 eV, while for the hole polaron the binding energy increases by 0.20 eV when the charge localizes in the surface layer of BiVO4. These results indicate that interfacial effects on the polaron binding energy and charge distribution are sizeable and cannot trivially be inferred from bulk calculations.</dc:description> <dc:identifier>https://archive.materialscloud.org/record/2019.0035/v1</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>doi:10.24435/materialscloud:2019.0035/v1</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>mcid:2019.0035/v1</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>oai:materialscloud.org:167</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>Materials Cloud</dc:publisher> <dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess</dc:rights> <dc:rights>Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode</dc:rights> <dc:subject>MARVEL</dc:subject> <dc:subject>molecular dynamics</dc:subject> <dc:subject>polarons</dc:subject> <dc:subject>BiVO4</dc:subject> <dc:subject>water splitting</dc:subject> <dc:title>Electron and Hole Polarons at the BiVO4–Water Interface</dc:title> <dc:type>Dataset</dc:type> </oai_dc:dc>
