“…In addition to these examples, other functional GDY nanoarchitectures, such as CuCo 2 O 4 /GDY heterostructure, [158] C 3 N 4 /GDY heterostructure, [84,148] Co 3 O 4 QD/GDY heterostructure, [61] CoS 2 NW/GDY heterostructure, [81] double Sscheme ZIF-67@GDY/CuI heterostructure, [159] S-scheme ZnCdS/GDY heterostructure, [160] GDY/CuMoO 4 /CuO heterostructure, [161] and GDY/CuI/NiO, [162] have been rationally designed to optimize the reaction overpotential, electron density, and carrier transfer capability for impressive H 2 production activity.…”
Graphdiyne (GDY) is regarded as an exceptional candidate to meet the growing demand in many fields due to its rich chemical bonds, highly π‐conjugated structure, uniformly distributed pores, large surface area, and high inhomogeneity of charge distribution. The extensive research efforts bring about a rapid expansion of GDY with a variety of functionalities, which significantly enhance performance including photocatalysis, energy, biomedicine, etc. In this review, the synthetic strategies (in situ and ex situ approaches) that are designed to rationally functionalize GDY, including optimizing their nanostructures by surface/interface engineering with dopants or functional groups (heteroatoms/small molecules/macromolecules), and building up hierarchical GDY‐based heterostructures are highlighted. Theoretical calculations on the structural evolution and electronic characteristics after the functionalization of GDY are briefly discussed. With elaborate functionalization and rational structure engineering, functional GDY applied in a variety of emerging applications (e.g., hydrogen evolution reaction, CO2 reduction reaction, nitrogen reduction reaction, energy storage and conversion, nanophotonics, sensors, biomedical applications, etc.) are comprehensively discussed. Finally, challenges and prospects concerning the future development of GDY‐based nanoarchitectures are also presented.

“…3c shows the IR spectrum of GDY, and the peak at 1352 cm À1 is due to the skeletal vibration of the benzene ring in GDY. 34 The characteristic peak of carbon-carbon triple bond is generally between 2250 and 2100 cm À1 , but it shows two peaks when there are two alkyne bonds connected. The double peaks at 2238 cm À1 and 2115 cm À1 prove the existence of -CRC-CRC-in GDY.…”
Reasonable construction of effective carbon-based photocatalysts is a new idea and new direction to expand the research field of photocatalysis. Carbon elements have a variety of hybridization modes due to...
“…Doping or modification of heteroatoms can regulate the charge distribution, increase the number of active sites, and enhance the ion storage capacity of GDY. 22 For example, heteroatom doping of carbon materials with B, 23 N, 24 O, 25 Si, 26 S 27 and P 28 can effectively enhance related performance. N-doped GDY structures can tune the electron distribution to improve performance for gas separation; 24 O-doped GDY structures achieve much better electrocatalytic character for the nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR), 25 and the addition of heteroatoms can greatly alter the properties of GDY.…”
Boron-doped graphdiyne (B-GDY) material has excellent performance in electrocatalyst, ion transport and energy storage. However, accurately identifying the structures of B-GDY in experiments remains a challenge, hindering further selection of...
