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. The presence of nitrogen vacancies widens the Fermi level gap between g-C3N4 and Tp-Tta COF, leading to enhanced carrier recombination and higher photocatalytic activity and stability. The efficient electron transfer and CO2 affinity of Tp-Tta contribute to the enhanced CO selectivity in the S-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst design for CO2 reduction.

Unraveling the dual defect sites in graphite carbon nitride for ultra-high photocatalytic H2O2 evolution

Xu Zhang et al.

Summary: Defect engineering modified graphite carbon nitride (g-C3N4) with dual defect sites, -C N groups and N vacancies, has been found to significantly enhance the photocatalytic production of H2O2. The dual defect sites form an electron-rich structure and lead to a more localized charge density distribution, which improves light absorption, carrier separation, selectivity, and activity of H2O2 generation. The N vacancies effectively adsorb and activate O-2, while the -C N groups facilitate the adsorption of H+, synergistically promoting H2O2 generation. The modified g-C3N4 achieved a high H2O2 generation rate and apparent quantum efficiency, surpassing previously reported g-C3N4-based photocatalysts.

Iron sites on defective BiOBr nanosheets: Tailoring the molecular oxygen activation for enhanced photocatalytic organic synthesis

Xinhui Ye et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the use of iron sites immobilized on defective BiOBr nanosheets as an efficient and selective photocatalyst for the activation of O2 to O1(2), achieving high conversion rates and selectivity in various organic oxidation reactions. The Fe3+ species anchored by oxygen vacancies facilitate charge separation and migration, promote effective adsorption of O2, and boost the quantum yield of excited triplet state, leading to enhanced photocatalytic performance. This work highlights the important role of metal sites anchored on semiconductors in regulating charge/energy transfer during heterogeneous photocatalysis and provides a new approach for designing high-performance photocatalysts.
