“…Nonmetal-based photocatalysts especially carbon, ,,− carbon nitride, ,− and silicon carbide are also hot photocatalysts for solar fuel production. In addition to the informative and specialized reviews on this issues, ,, many carbon-based photocatalysts such as carbon quantum dots (CQDs), graphene (G), and/or its oxides (GO) are still used as photocatalysts or its supports in the last 3 years. − For instance, it was reported that GO is an effective, low-cost photocatalyst for simultaneous CO 2 reduction and solar energy harvesting . By modulating the oxygenated functional groups, the CH 3 OH conversion rate can be achieved up to 0.172 μmol h –1 g cat –1 on GO under 300 W halogen lamp irradiation, much higher than that of TiO 2 .…”
