Inside-and-out modification of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) photocatalysts via defect engineering for energy and environmental science

Yuhan Li et al.

Summary: g-C3N4 is an attractive photocatalyst due to its visible-light response, abundance, stability and high yield. However, its limitation lies in the small electron mean free path and high symmetry, which hinder the separation and transfer of photogenerated carriers. Defect engineering on g-C3N4 can enhance the migration of photogenerated electrons through charge redistribution, surface microstructure changes, and creation of new electron excitation orbital direction.

Interfacial Chemical Bond Engineering in a Direct Z-Scheme g-C3N4/ MoS2 Heterojunction

Fangyuan Xing et al.

Summary: The Z-scheme heterojunction is promising in photocatalysis due to its efficient carrier separation and strong photoredox properties. However, regulating charge separation at the nanometric interface remains a challenge. In this study, we used g-C3N4 and MoS2 as models and designed the Mo-N chemical bond to connect the CB of MoS2 and VB of g-C3N4. The Mo-N bond acts as an atomic-level interfacial bridge, facilitating charge carrier migration between g-C3N4 and MoS2. Experiments confirmed that the Mo-N bond and internal electric field greatly enhance photogenerated carrier separation. The optimized photocatalyst exhibits a hydrogen evolution rate 19.6 times higher than pristine bulk C3N4. This study demonstrates the importance of atomic-level interfacial chemical bond design in heterojunctions and provides a new approach for efficient catalytic heterojunction design.

Shanxi Gong et al.

Summary: One-dimensional tubular g-C3N4 (TCN) with piezoelectric properties was prepared by self-assembly and hydrothermal method, and BaTiO3/TCN composite with excellent dual piezoelectric properties was constructed by further hydrothermal reaction. The TCN exhibited a higher piezoelectric degradation rate of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) under ultrasonic vibration compared to CN. The BaTiO3/TCN composite showed excellent piezoelectric photocatalytic activity with higher TCH degradation rate under visible light (VSL) illumination and ultrasonic vibration, demonstrating the synergic catalytic effect of dual piezoelectric.

Yichuan Wang et al.

Summary: In this study, g-C3N4 modified e-MnO2 composites were synthesized and found to exhibit high catalytic performance in peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation for the degradation of acid orange 7. The interaction between PMS and e-MnO2 and electron transfer to PMS in the redox cycle of Mn(II), Mn(III), and Mn(IV) were identified as the possible degradation mechanisms. This work provides insight into the promotion of efficient MnO2 catalysts in PMS activation for the degradation of organic pollutants.
