In situ growth of a heterojunction cocatalyst on the g-C₃N₅ surface enhances charge transfer to improve photocatalytic activity

Abstract

A novel strategy involves depositing Co on P-doped g-C3N5 to create a P-dependent cocatalyst, which addresses the issue of CoOOH·CoOx binding with g-C3N5 and enhances photocatalytic efficiency by suppressing fast carrier recombination.
