The effect of biaxial and uniaxial strains on the electronic structure of anatase is studied
using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculation with ultrasoft pseudopotential and a generalized
gradient approximation (GGA) Perdew-Burke Ernzerhof (PBE) exchange-correlation. The lattice
constant is optimized using the Birch-Murnaghan equation of states (BM-EOS) to get an optimized
geometric structure of anatase TiO2. We apply biaxial and uniaxial strains to this optimized structure
up to 16% and find that the applied strains change the band gap energy compared to a pure anatase
with a different band gap energy up to 1.61 eV for biaxial strain and 0.35 eV for uniaxial strain. The
biaxial strains increase gap energies except at +16% tensile strain, decreasing the gap energy to 0.04
eV. Uniaxial strains tend to increase as they increase except at -12 and -16%; their gap energy
differences are 0.08 and 0.20 eV, respectively, smaller than the zero strain. The results also show that
the applied 16% tensile strain significantly lengthens the atomic bonds; thus, we conclude that the
maximum strain applied to anatase TiO2 is 16%.
