“…The absorption threshold edges of PMo 12 @g-C 3 N 4 -6% and PW 12 @g- with an estimated band gap of 3.3 eV. [33] In the spectra, no characteristics of POMs were observed due to the homogeneous distribution of nanoparticles. Since the band gap energies of PW 12 and PMo 12 were different, the blue-shift of POMs@g-C 3 N 4 cannot be ascribed to the POMs modification.…”

“…The Au surface plasmon resonance broadens the optical adsorption range, while Pt acts as a sink for photoexcited electrons. The combination of noble metals and g-C 3 N 4 enables tunable heterojunctions with improved charge transport than traditional nanocomposites [237][238][239][240][241][242][243], and such multicomponent heterostructures are a promising solution to environmental depollution [39,40,42], for example g-C 3 N 4 /Ag 3 PO 4 systems for MO degradation [242,243]. Ag 3 PO 4 @g-C 3 N 4 core-shell photocatalysts have also been applied to MB degradation under visible light, achieving 97% conversion in 30 min compared with only 79% for a physical mixture of the Ag 3 PO 4 and g-C 3 N 4 components, and 69% for pure Ag 3 PO 4 .…”

Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) is a promising material for photocatalytic applications such as solar fuels production through CO 2 reduction and water splitting, and environmental remediation through the degradation of organic pollutants. This promise reflects the advantageous photophysical properties of g-C 3 N 4 nanostructures, notably high surface area, quantum efficiency, interfacial charge separation and transport, and ease of modification through either composite formation or the incorporation of desirable surface functionalities. Here, we review recent progress in the synthesis and photocatalytic applications of diverse g-C 3 N 4 nanostructured materials, and highlight the physical basis underpinning their performance for each application. Potential new architectures, such as hierarchical or composite g-C 3 N 4 nanostructures, that may offer further performance enhancements in solar energy harvesting and conversion are also outlined.

Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C N ) has been widely used in fields related to energy and materials science. However, nanostructured g-C N photocatalysts synthesized by traditional thermal polycondensation methods have the disadvantage of small specific surface areas and wide band gaps; these limit the catalytic activity and application range of g-C N . Based on the unique nanostructure of g-C N , it is a feasible method to modify g-C N with metals to design novel metal-semiconductor composites. Metals alter the photochemical properties of g-C N , in particular, narrow the band gap and expand photoabsorption into the visible range, which improves the photocatalytic performance. This review covers recent progress in metal/g-C N nanocomposites for photocatalysts, organic systems, biosensors, and so on. The aim is to summarize the synthetic methods, nanostructures, and applications of metal/g-C N nanocomposite materials, as well as discuss future research directions in these areas.
