“…To date, considerable reviews concerning ultrathin 2D photocatalysts have been published, involving development of modification strategies for 2D nanomaterials, 23,24 enhancement of CO 2 photoreduction, 25 charge steering and surface defect engineering. 26,27 Despite these reviews, a timely systematic overview of atomically thin 2D photocatalysts is still pressingly necessary, covering the synthetic methods, characterization techniques, and fundamental mechanisms of adjusting and controlling the strategies for boosting the overall photoconversion efficiency and improving product selectivity.…”
