Carbon dioxide reduction on strontium titanate perovskites - data

The dataset was generated during a density functional theory study of the mechanism of reaction of CO2 to CO using strontium titanate (SrTiO3) perovskites. Technologies such as photocatalysis which mimic the natural process of photosynthesis to convert the CO2 molecule into useful hydrocarbons are extremely attractive. The detailed knowledge of the reaction mechanism is crucial to help improve the SrTiO3 conversion efficiency. Data consist of a sequential set of 12 VASP CONTCAR files containing the optimised coordinates for all the intermediates and transition states along the reaction mechanism from CO2 to CO.
