Defective g-C3N4/covalent organic framework van der Waals heterojunction toward highly efficient S-scheme CO2 photoreduction

Jiangpeng Wang et al.

Summary: This study introduces a novel vdW heterojunction composite of g-C3N4 with nitrogen vacancies and Tp-Tta COF, showing effective interface contact area and improved photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance.
