In-situ prepare graphene/g-C3N4 D-π-A in-plane heterojunctions for high-performance photocatalytic hydrogen production

CdIn2S4 microspheres embedded with mesoporous Zn-doped g-C3N4 ultrathin nanosheets for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

“…By now, several semiconductors such as TiO 2 , 32 MoS 2 , 33 graphene, 34 CdS, 35 and LaNi 1− x Fe x O 3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1), 36 have been combined with g-C 3 N 4 to achieve efficient charge separation and enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen generation. In search of desired semiconductors for coupling with g-C 3 N 4 , ternary sulfides of chalcogenide AB 2 X 4 have attracted considerable attention in the photocatalytic field because of their narrow band gaps and suitable band edge potentials.…”

Rare earth oxide Y2O3 modified g-C3N4 for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen production: photocatalytic performance and electron transfer channels

“…As a metal-free polymer semiconductor photocatalyst [17,18], graphite nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) is one of the known materials for photocatalytic hydrogen production. Because of its exceptional stability [19], appropriate energy band structure, and distinctive planar shape, it has garnered a lot of interest in the field of photocatalytic hydrogen production [7,[20][21][22][23][24]. However, the inherent fast reconfiguration of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and the low electrical conductivity of the original g-C 3 N 4 leads to low photocatalytic performance, severely limiting its further practical applications [25][26][27].…”
