Electronic structure, optical and sonophotocatalytic properties of spindle-like CaWO4 microcrystals synthesized by the sonochemical method

Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue and dye mixture using indium-doped CaWO4 synthesized by sonochemical and microwave-assisted hydrothermal methods

“…With the increase in indium percentage, the phases obtained in both methods remained CaWO 4 . 28 The non-formation of secondary phases indicates that In ions were incorporated into the CaWO 4 structure and the non-presence of deleterious phases indicates a high purity of the synthesized samples.

Computational and experimental investigations on structural, electronic and optical properties of scheelite compounds

“…According to research, for example, P. B. De Sousa et al conducted the most detailed study on the CaWO 4 compound of scheelite [12]. In this study, it has been proven that the sonophotocatalytic (SPC) process using CaWO 4 catalyst microcrystals is more promising than the traditional photocatalysis (PC) process.…”

Development of novel microsphere structured – calcium tungstate as efficacious electrocatalyst for the detection of antibiotic drug nitrofurantoin

“…[27][28][29] The special class of tungstic acid hosts with scheelite crystal structure CaWO 4 with general formula AWO 4 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba, Pb, and Cd) are intriguing in several fields, such as photoluminescence, 30 scintillators, 31 temperature sensing, 32 and catalyst 33 due to their excellent chemical stability and structural characteristics. 34,35 To date, many synthetic strategies have been adapted to obtain distinct chemical activity and shapes of CaWO 4 , including hydrothermal method, 36 the reverse-micelle method, 37 the solid-state reaction, 38 and coprecipitation methods. 39 Among all these synthetic methods ultrasound technique attains consideration being cost effective, high purities, and rapid reaction rate method.…”
